Clunky and Sharp
I knew from the reviews that this ring was going to be big, I just never imagined it would be quite this big....I have pretty chunky fingers and usually the bigger the ring, the better. I had also somewhat envisioned the silver mount to be more prominent, and the stone itself to be flatter but it sticks up quite a bit from the silver mount it's sitting in instead of sitting flush like I imagined. With the ring on my finger and looking straight at it, you can barely even see the silver around it. It's hard to really tell from the seller pics. The face of the stone of the ring I got has a slight imperfection, a cloudy streak across the face that would not get polished away no matter how hard I tried.<br /><br />Even with all these issues, it's still gorgeous and I totally would've kept it, but the bottom of the ring, where the bands meet the mount for the stone (sorry IDK what the official name is) is completely unfinished and the edges are super sharp, it cut me twice already and I have barely worn it. It's hard to get a good picture but I did my best to show the squared off silver bands that didn't even taper to an edge and weren't filed smooth at all on the underside. It looks like someone just snipped the ends off and soldered it together with not a single  thought to the fact that this would be the part that somebody is going to have rubbing on their skin for hours. There was also darkened metal like it was burned or not polished? Nobody can see that part unless you take it off, but it's unsightly to receive a product in that condition IMO.<br /><br />I would've given it the lowest rating but it really was beautiful, the weight felt good and the size was perfect. Overall my experience was disappointing but I didn't see anyone else mention sharp edges so maybe this was a one-off situation
