looks more flat than hammered...the hammering is subtle. beautiful craftsmanship.
Stone looks faceted, and with more color variety in the photo, it is not. A deep blue cabochon is more like it.
That being said, it is quite pretty and fits perfectly!
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!
