This piece is bold, contemporary, minimalist, easy to wear and style. Overall a very solid design from the master crafters at James Avery. All James Avery pieces are hand made in the US. This ring is stamped for James Avery and is marked and XRF tested as sterling silver. This piece only just skims the 7.75 spot on the mandrel and is so long going up the finger with no tapering in the design that it fits just so on my size 7.5 finger. I believe that if I were a size 7.75 personally it might be a little uncomfortable.
