Color and workmanship.
Gem Type: Topaz, Ring Size: 7
This ring is absolutely stunning! The color of the Pink Topaz is rich and the 14K Rope Twisted Band just makes the Topaz pop! I have been watching and wanting this ring for a couple of years or more. The only thing that could have made this purchase a little better for me is a Ring Box. It comes in a Pouch, that's inside a nice box. While very nice look, I'd rather have it come in a Ring Box. I highly recommend this Ring, it stands out bigtime and is very nice for the price! Now, I want a Bracelet to match it!

Gorgeous!
Gem Type: Topaz, Ring Size: 7, Gem Type: Topaz, Ring Size: 7
There's not a lot of pictures or reviews on this rings so I had to post one. When I got this ring it took my breath away. The pink is so spectacular with a rich and deep color that I had to order the bracelet to go with it. It is very simple but could be paired with thin diamond bands. I like it alone so it stands out. It makes me so happy to wear it.
