"Simply magnificient!"
This is the second ring I buy from this artist. The first was this model which was for my wedding. My adopted daughter is now getting married and we are very close. I bought the ring as a keepsake of our bond. The ring is called Yin/Yang and it is very fitting to symbolize the bond between two people. This is a very high quality ring and the craftsmanship is impeccable.
