Taller and wider than I expected
Gem Type: Ruby, Ring Size: 6, Gem Type: Ruby, Ring Size: 6
My ring came in with some small scratches on the middle stone. I read in the description that you could receive a stone that is “cloudy” so I am lucky that my stones are free of any cloudy spots. I’m sure it will get some small scratches as I wear it. The ring sits up high on your finger and it’s wide enough to keep your hand from being closed all the way leaving your pinkie sticking out. I tried to capture that in my pictures. Overall I am happy with the ring. I just wish I knew how wide and tall it was before I bought it so I’d know what to expect. The stock photos don’t give any views of the side of the ring.

Great Tray For Storing My Everyday Carries
Size: 8.5" x 5.8" x 1.9", Color: Black
My everyday carry items (wallet, keys, etc.), used to just get thrown around wherever when I'd get home, but this little tray makes a great, defined, space for me to keep those things when I don't need them on me. The soft lining reduces the obnoxious sound of throwing keys on a hard surface, and of course keeps me from scratching up a surface. The build feels quality and I haven't seen any damage to it yet. Also the all black version with gold buckle looks quite good and adds a subtle touch of luxury. Absolute recommend for the price.
