The ring is a beautiful blue - but more toward the swiss blue (brighter) that a typical grey Blue London Topaz. I will very much enjoy this ring and am pleased, but just so Ebay shoppers who are thinking about it get the most accurate picture of what the ring is like, the size of the stone and ring are larger that you might think. This piece is so fun - but not for the faint of heart. It makes a real presence and makes a statement!
