I have been married for 30 years and so have used each stone to symbolize a decade. People have admired it and find it hard to believe that it is circonia!!
Good ring for what I need it for:
I bought this ring as a stand in for my actual engagement ring for when I'm doing things like going to the beach or camping, activities where my actual ring could become damaged or lost. I bought a size 5 and it is true to size. From a distance it can pass as real but up-close there is no denying it is a fake. For $20 it serves its purpose and it is near impossible to find anything nicer for the price tag.
Sparkles Like a CZ:
There is no mistaking that this ring is made from cubic zirconia, and there is no chance that a person who knows, even a little, about gemstones would mistake it for diamonds. When the stones are viewed in the center (from above), there is no depth to them. They are highly faceted, so they artificially pick up every color of the rainbow. The CG image shown by Amazon.com is better looking than the actual ring. Two stars for correct fit and nice setting, but this ring is being returned.
Pretty fake looking...:
I ordered this ring as a present for myself, but I returned it because it looked really fake--it looks like it came out a dime store the stones are too big, the silver band is too thin, and it was sized too large. Then I had to wait ages for Amazon to reimburse me (which they finally did, thank you!).
