After ordering, the ring arrived in two days.
It was in a red box and the interior was black.
Overall, the front of the ring is quite lovely.
The green amber shines and sparkles when exposed to light.
Even without much light the stone captures any light and reflects it.
The side view of the ring looks decent.
The crown part is raised on a platform (only noticeable from the side).
The hand parts of the ring are concave outwards...
Nevertheless, the ring is comfortable to slide on and off.
Behind the heart on the inside is stamped, "Poland... 925."
The back of the ring is sort of on the thin side.
The sterling silver is really as bright as the photo shows.
I think it would look even better with a slight tarnished antiqued look.
The ring is quite sturdy, not easily malleable... unless you had the intention to do so.
I won't be worrying about the amber falling off while wearing it either.
The ring also came with a slip of paper stating its authenticity and brief how-to-care-for instructions.

The thing(s) I am happy about: The overall design, the green amber, and the sizing.
The thing(s) I am not so thrilled about: The thin back, the raised crown structure...

Edit: Found a tiny crater/scratch on surface of the green amber- not noticeable at all though.
