This ring is far more beautiful in person...the sparkle is unbelievable. I took this in to a local jewelry store to be sized after the birth of my daughter, and to my surprise, the jeweler recognized the mark inside the ring! He asked when I had purchased it there! So, I KNOW this ring is from a VERY reputable store. I have had many compliments on the unique style of this ring. You can't go wrong with this one!
