The colors in these earrings were what attracted me at first, as I wanted a gift for my sister who is an artist. She loved them immediately and appreciates the delicate design as well as the way the stones catch the light. She tells me that she will be wearing them often.
looks more flat than hammered...the hammering is subtle. beautiful craftsmanship.
Stone looks faceted, and with more color variety in the photo, it is not. A deep blue cabochon is more like it.
That being said, it is quite pretty and fits perfectly!
Even though this looks a big ring, it is surprisingly light and easy to wear. The setting around the stone is elevated a little above the band making it ride a little above adjacent fingers. The stone is beautiful.
