I bought this ring because my "real" wedding ring has been in the shop nearly half a dozen times in the last 2 years, usually for 2-3 weeks at time, due to tiny stones coming dislodged on the sides from broken tips. During COVID, they were not accepting warranty repairs, so my wedding ring sat in the safe for 3+ months. I WAS TIRED OF NOT HAVING A WEDDING RING ON MY FINGER!!! Along comes this beauty - it looks like what I would design, if I could have made myself the perfect ring. Unlike a ring costing 100X this ring, the "channel set" stones on the sides will not come loose from a broken metal tip. Also, at such a reasonable price, I knew I wouldn't have any heartburn about retiring it to my jewelry box "until next time" once my wedding ring came out of the repair shop. When I showed it to my husband, he asked what I paid, and when I told him "right at 37" he thought I meant $3700. Not $37.00. The main stone is a bit large to be "real" at $3700, but he's not a jewelry expert, and neither are most of the other people in my life. Turns out, I enjoy this ring so much, when I got my wedding ring back from the jeweler, I moved this set to my right hand instead of putting it away. My only complaint is that I wanted to buy a second band to go on the opposite side of the set, for symmetry, and when I emailed the company, they said that isn't an option, and I don't really want to buy a SECOND set of both rings just to get the band. Overall, in the time I've owned this ring, I've been very happy with is!

I purchased this piece to test drive the 2 carat size. It looks like my original wedding set with a much larger center stone. It is beautiful! Not sure I’ll buy a real one now!!
