Review on Newshe Engagement Wedding Sterling Silver by William Nunes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

FABULOUS! Absolutely love. However.

This ring is BEAUTIFUL. This is one of my absolute favorites and I get loads of compliments. It's really brilliant. However. Long-term quality is an issue. I bought this ring in March 2017. Almost immediately, one of the side stones of the wedding ring fell out. It was at the bottom so I wasn't too concerned. Spring. Put it back on yesterday (I don't wear it every day as I have a whole collection of rings that I wear) and found another side stone fell out on the same side. I am NOT rough with my rings. I never wash them while wearing them, I always take them off to wash my hands, shower and even sleep. I checked it under a jeweler's loupe and actually found that two side stones were missing. But what also struck me and shocked me beyond measure was that there were huge cuts/cuts on the center stone and around its platform. CZ is a hard stone and is not easily scratched under normal conditions. (Cubic zirconia is relatively hard, 8-8.5 on the Mohs scale - slightly harder than most natural semi-precious stones. While a diamond is a 10 on the Mohs scale). How this happened is a mystery to me and I am amazed at the quality and combination of stones used in these rings. I love Newshe and her Imposter Designer rings but their long term quality just doesn't hold up. This isn't the first of their rings to lose gems fairly quickly. Mounting them on small side stones definitely requires some work.

Pros
  • beautiful thing
Cons
  • infinitely slow
