I was looking for an inexpensive, dainty ring that could be stacked, but when I started shopping, particularly for 14k gold and emeralds, I gave up the "affordable" idea and bought further. And then it was on Revain! I don't know how grinders manage to cut stones that small, but they are great. The emeralds are deep grass green with no visible inclusions and harmonize perfectly with each other. They sparkle in any light, but you just have to see them in bright sunlight. Dazzling!
