10k White Gold, March Birthstone, Aquamarine and Diamond Ring

A faceted round of delicate blue aquamarine is encircled by diamond accents (.003 cttw) in this lovely March birthstone ring. The aquamarine center stone is held in a secure prong setting of 10 karat white gold and featured on a slender and elegant 10 karat white gold band. Simple and graceful, this ring makes a beautiful gift for someone with a March birthday.
Customer Review: Disappointing
I waited two months to receive this in the mail and was pretty disappointed in it when it arrived. The stone was barely blue and looked like a big, cheap, fake diamond. The setting, viewed from the side, was unattractive. The band and setting were thinner than I'd gathered from the photo. I supposed you could call it "delicate," but to me it looked flimsy. I returned it right away. It just looked cheap, and not like the photo.
Customer Review: Beautiful, but questionable quality
I received this ring for Mother's Day and was initially delighted. It's very beautiful and delicate looking, and I was surprised by the sparkle and color of the aquamarine. The diamond accents are very tiny (much smaller than they appear in the picture) and there are small white gold "blobs" between the diamonds to create the appearance of more diamonds than there actually are, which was disappointing but it wasn't really noticeable unless looking closely. Unfortunately, within hours I noticed that one of the side stones was already missing :(. I'm getting a replacement rather than just a refund, because it's still a pretty ring for the price. If I had spent more money I would expect higher quality, but for under $200 I'm willing to deal with the hassle of a return. Hopefully the replacement will last longer.
