"Love this ring, however"





I love this ring, it is stylish and simple. I have received lots of compliments on it. However, the stone fell out (thankfully while I was driving so I was able to save the stone). I only wear it on special occasions, take it off when I wash my hands, and store it in my jewelry box. I now have to find glue that will not damage the beautiful stone since jade is porous. I still love it and would have given 5 stars except for the stone falling out (which really should not happen).

"Beautiful jade earrings"





The picture was very nice, but the earrings are much better in real! Perfect finishing, quality of material and handiwork is spotless, and we received the package from Central America just under a week from placing the order. Love the earrings, and we will definitely come back to the catalog for more!
