I ordered this ring a little over a month ago because I like chrysocolla and was attracted to the design. The setting of the stone and the hammered sterling band are both elegant and versatile so that the ring can be worn for both special occasions and everyday use. I'm enjoying it so much that I plan to purchase a second ring by this artist in the same design but with the Andean pink opal stone.
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!
