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!
This is just the ring I was looking for. Great craftsmanship, size is exact, lapis stone is beautiful and shaped perfectly. The ring is not bulky, but it stands out because of its beauty.
