I bought the ring because he pleased me. Since I'm allergic and thought wow Sterling Silver 925 because I can buy with a clear conscience. The delivery took longer, but ok. The ring was perfect, but after a day my fingers itched and after a week the ring is already under way and no longer looks beautiful silver from. I hardly think that's the real sterling silver. The velvet-like bag to store is probably superior to the ring selbst.Schade actually.
