This is a Genuine sapphire solitaire ring.
Pros:
-You do get a really large sapphire, which is great.
Cons:
-Setting prongs are not very symmetrical - not too much care was taken to set the stone.
-Setting is shown on the photo at the most flattering angle. In fact the setting (actual metal ring) is very thing, and much thinner than on the photo. I'll estimate it is 1-1.5mm wide and 1-2.5mm thick.
-The stone is very dark. Very dark indeed. I have looked at the sapphire in very bright daylight, and only then was able to see the blue colour as clearly as on the product photo. More often than not, the stone looks black.
-With sapphires, the darker the stone, the cheaper it is.
Overall:
The manufacturer of the stone has pictured it at the most flattering angle and setup. In reality the stone is very dark (dark-dark blue, almost black), and the setting is very thin. Unfortunately this is not a good deal. It is not a ripoff either, as you are getting a large stone. You do get what you pay for, and it's by far not a bargain.

I love the style of the ring and the cut of the sapphire for the money.
I would have liked to have paid a bit more and got a thicker band. Overall, I am wearing it with a smiple second band and I have gotten multipe comments when I wear them together.
The customer service was great!
Thank you

The presentation and shipping was fine, the retailer was courteous when I returned it, with no problems. However it was completely different from the picture, I don't even think it was a 1 carat size. It was a good deal smaller than pictured, additionally the band was not a comfort fit band as shown.

I have not taken this ring off since I got it!! I absolutely love it. I do wear it as an engagement ring and want you to know if you plan to as well, you will need a ring wrap in order for it to sit flush with your ring.
The color is beautiful! It arrived promptly and the company is great to work with. I highly recommend this item. The price cannot be beat!

I recieved this ring for Christmas. My husband and I eloped, so I never got the wedding ring I had always wanted. So while shopping around for my ring, I found this one and fell in love immediatly! The band is a little thin for my taste, but the stone is gorgeous and the high setting is eye catching! I plan to get a ring enhancer to go with it, but it is beautiful alone! I am very happy with my dream ring!
