A delightfully elegant ring
Friends who have commented on this gorgeous ring agree that the piece deserves a more accurate descriptor than "cocktail ring." It could easily be a wedding / commitment ring for an individual who is brave enough to break from tradition. The term "cocktail ring" recalls images of flashy stones, bordering on garish. This lovely pale green stone set in a highly polished sterling band, is the opposite of garish; the artisans have skillfully selected, cut, and polished the jade, showcasing its appealing, discrete beauty. The stone is precisely as pictured in the photo in terms of color and proportion, but it is highly polished, as befits the setting. Many rings with semi-precious stones can be thick and clunky, with rough edges and sloppy soldering. This piece was masterfully created, with not a rough edge to be found. My complements to the talented Jimenez family.

A unique and fun ring!
I was intrigued by the description of this ring and wanted a jade ring to go with other jade jewelry. It arrived early on my birthday, which was also a plus! When I first tried it on, it seemed a little loose even tho' I ordered my correct size. I re-arranged the rings a couple of times to see the different looks and found one I really like that fits well. It has so many colors of jade that it goes with all my other pieces. I do have one question for the creator(s) of it. I am wondering if the jade balls are secured by soldered silver post and glue, or just glue. It would make a difference to the "wearability" of the ring for me.
