“Not Flattering for Me”

Empress ring had to be returned even though it is well-made . The ring was much too overpowering, not at all flattering. Had to return.

“Beautiful ring”

This is a beautiful ring and is of very good quality; however, it does not match with the color of my necklace and earrings. I just ordered another ring that I hope will match from the same artist.
