I’ve had my ring for about a year and it still looks like new and has no damages. The patina is still holding strong and with a bezel set stone, the garnet hasn’t become loose!
I love this ring. It is my birthstone and because of it's unique design I think it can be worn tastefully by either a man or woman. Buana makes beautiful, wearable art. I definitely recommend this piece and his others as well. Thanks Buana and Novica!
