I've been wearing the Real 925 Sterling Silver Tree of Life Finger Ring from Blingcharming for 90 days. I wanted a nice ring, but I didn’t want to spend a fortune. Here’s my day-by-day breakdown of wearing it, from the moment I opened the box to now.
The ring arrived in a small box. My first thought was, "It’s smaller than I expected." It looked like the pictures online, though. The 925 sterling silver seemed shiny and new. The "Tree of Life" design was clear and detailed. It didn’t feel cheap, which was a good sign. I was a little worried about the crystal leaf details, hoping they wouldn't fall out easily. I chose this particular ring because I like nature-themed jewelry, and it seemed like a good alternative to a 925 sterling silver mens necklace.
I put the ring on right away. It fit true to size. It felt comfortable on my finger. No sharp edges or anything. The silver was smooth against my skin.
Verdict: Initial impressions are positive. The ring looks good and feels comfortable. Time will tell how it holds up.
For the first week, I wore the ring every day. I only took it off to shower and sleep. I wanted to see how it felt during normal activities. I type a lot for work, so I was curious if the ring would get in the way. It didn’t. It was lightweight enough that I barely noticed it.
One thing I did notice was that the silver started to lose its initial shine a little. I read online that 925 sterling silver can tarnish. I wasn't overly concerned, but I did start thinking about how to clean it. It may not be as durable as a more robust 925 sterling silver mens necklace, but I was hoping it wouldn't tarnish quickly.
I started to look at other items in the Blingcharming store like sub_category because I was impressed with the quality.
Verdict: The ring is comfortable for daily wear. Tarnishing is a minor concern, but manageable.
After a month of daily wear, the ring had definitely lost some of its initial luster. It wasn't super dull, but it wasn't as shiny as it was on day one. I decided to try cleaning it with a silver polishing cloth. It helped a bit, but not completely. I think I need to invest in a proper silver cleaning solution.
I also noticed that one of the tiny crystal leaves on the Tree of Life design seemed a little loose. I gently pressed it back into place. This made me worry a bit about the long-term durability of the crystals. I wasn't rough with the ring, but I also didn't baby it. I wore it while washing dishes and doing yard work.
