I love, love, love this ring! I have quite a collection of jewelry and even though this Noir Buddha ring is costume jewelry, it has just become my new favorite piece. The sparkle of the CZ's and the attention to detail is amazing! I also love Asian designs in jewelry and art, and this ring still has an Far Eastern flair -despite the intense bling factor. In my opinion, considering the designer quality and beauty of this piece, it is worth every penny!
