Be cautious if you need a bigger size, the ring will not look exactly as pictured, as the stone seems a bit small and disproportionate to the band if you need a bigger ring size. Band itself is a little rigid, could have softer edges. Other than that it is as pictured.
This ring is more beautiful than I thought it would be. The thick sterling silver band stylishly sets off the gorgeous opal. The ring is of such high quality that I have now purchased two additional opal and sterling silver rings in different styles from the same artisan.
