5 out of 5 starsThis was my first purchase with this shop and what a gorgeous ring! It’s so elegant with the more minimal design and the matte finish against the lovely, sparkly sapphire! Although it appears to be very well made and the stone and pearl look very secure, the seller kindly sent an extra pearl just in case this one is ever lost. Shipping was fast too. Such a great experience, I certainly plan to purchase from this shop again!!
