Shanus · ‎05-17-2010

Interested to hear thoughts on this Big Deal. Has anyone purchased this ring?

Not interested, To ornate for my taste. Nancy mentioned sizes selling out.

Enjoy! To those who purchased, wear in good health.

@Sweet_Serenity. I love watching BIXBY, appreciate her designs and workmanship, but this ring did look heavy and uncomfortable. Yes, ornate, too. I like her enamel work much better.

@Justice4all Now there’s a word that says it all....although not many will get the meaning. My Nana used it all the time.

Oh yes! Do appreciate her very much. I'm not a designer so take my opinions knowing that. The ring looks masculine to my eye. Then concerning astrology avoid anything to with, It's against my spiritual beliefs.

@Sweet_Serenity After the first presentation, it looked heavy like a class ring to me. As far as the zodiac, many buy into that. I don’t either...no religious beliefs, just not important in a design of jewelry.

I ordered it and then cancelled. It's one of the first pieces of jewelry I've found that has my sign correctly displayed (I have it inked on my body) as well as using the color stone associated with my sign vs the color stone assigned to my month.

However...it's not a big ring (an inch total in length). The sides, though beautifully detailed, remind me of my high-school class ring. I ordered this as a pinky ring because it's small but it's too much stuff for pinky ring....

When there is that much doubt about an item, I usually don't purchase it so I cancelled. Haven't felt any pings of regret so I know I did the right thing.

I have many of her items and love them but feel this wasn't executed the way it could have been to give that WOW kind of response you usually get with her items.
