I had been wanting this ring for a long time and finally had the opportunity to purchase it "used, like new" through Warehouse Deals at a discounted price. When I received it, it was perfect and only the original box had been substituted, so I was quite pleased. I tried it on and it fit well. No problems there. I noticed that it seemed uncomfortable, however, and rubbed between my fingers due to the Cubic Zirconias being set all around the band. As I wore it around the house, I found that they didn't sparkle like I had expected either. They are pretty little stones and appear to be set very well, but I just didn't see them catch the light and sparkle like I'd expected they would. I ended up deciding to return it, mostly due to the discomfort, but also due to the fact that it didn't impress me enough to put up with it. I have a number of Myia Passiello jewelry pieces and have always been happy with their quality and design. This ring looked sturdy and was made well too. Perhaps the different colored rings in this design are more impressive but this "clear on silver" just didn't bring the bling that the price would mandate for me, and I only paid about a third of the retail price. Edit- 7-17- I have taken a chance and purchased this ring in other colors since writing this review and added a star. I have the black, blue, and the turquoise rings and like them a lot. They are much more attractive, colorful, and sparkly than the clear ring, to me, and I've been able to wear them without a lot of discomfort. Of course, this style ring will tend to catch on things a little more than a smooth ring, but not terribly. I suggest you give them a try if you're attracted to the look and style. Myia Passiello has been a reliable, well-made brand for me and I've purchased a lot of pieces. The Swarovski zirconias have always been clear and beautiful, as these are. None of the rings have lost stones yet either! Yay! The price fluctuates a LOT on these rings so keep tabs to get the best, if you have time. I'd actually give these four and a half stars now. 6-17-18-- Just wanted to add that I've never lost a stone in Myia Passiello jewelry, and I have quite a lot of pieces, including earrings, necklaces, and rings. They are made well and keep their looks with a bit of common sense and care. I'm comfortable recommending them.
