The listing, Sterling Silver Tri-Turquoise Set Ring - new - Sizes 8-9 - new w/slight band distortion has ended.
I bought this especially for Listia members.
I'm a bull in a China shop and did not store this ring properly; therefore, the photos will show some distortion in the Sterling silver band portion of the ring. On other rings I have stuck needle nose pliers inside the band and pried outward to remove such distortion. I will allow the winner to do that. The metal is soft enough for it.
Its display card has suffered a bit as well. I trimmed it to look a bit more presentable.
My monitor displays the stones as more toward a turquoise-green. In reality, they are more of a Native American turquoise blue color. This is definitely a Southwestern design but was not manufactured by Native American Indians. There is no hint of green in the stones.
To the sides of the channel sets are raised dots. They remind me of a Black Hills Gold effect.
The size is labeled as a 9; however, I feel it is more like an 8. It fits perfectly on my size 8 finger. If you wear a 9, it may be a little snug until you work with the band.
There is no damage to the sets and their embellishments. This is a lovely ring and the band distortion won't be noticed by others.
The ring is still attached to its display card. I do not carelessly send rings in letter envelopes, despite my storage faux pas. It will be well protected inside a box and sent inside a padded envelope.
