Alright...
...this is embarrassing because this is my third review of THIS ring design, each a different stone! In my defense, however, my children -- who knew how much I loved my first two rings (amethyst and topaz) -- knew that I begrudgingly resisted buying the garnet version. But, being the great kids they are, they bought this as a surprise for me for my birthday! Although all three rings are gorgeous and I love each of them, this one, for obvious reasons, is closest to my heart. Thank you, kids! And Made, thank you once again as well!
