I LOVE this ring and I don't buy "flower" design jewelry BUT this one is gorgeous! I have so many rings and this the the one I get compliments on! The Iolite is the best compliment to the light tanzanite stones. The tanz. highlights the iolite flower and makes it glow. It is a beauty for any age and really shows up on the hand. Goes with lapis, purples, etc. but is its own color. I've tried Tanz. stones only, but they're too washed out. This ring shows the Tanz. by contrasting it w/the Iolite. Both are beautiful, sparkley stones. LOVE IT!
