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!
Gave this as a gift to my friend's 10 year old daughter as her piece of real sterling silver. She LOVEd the spinning aspect of the ring - which is exactly why I choose this type of ring for her.
A true statement ring, high polish shine and excellent craftsmanship. The underside of the ring face has a beautiful design as well. True to size and balanced on finger.
