I bought this because it reminded me of my grandmother's ring she always wore which was rubies. This looks like rubies to me. It is more pink than red.
The leaves and snail itself are very detailed and the garnet is a gorgeous shad of red! If you're buying yourself a present or for someone else they'll absolutely love it. Its also a solid piece of silver so its holding up pretty nicely to the bumps of life!
This is a beautiful garnet ring. I have twin daughters and garnet is their birthstone. I purchased a pair of garnet earrings as well and the 2 look great together!
