The ring I received has slightly less bevel (i.e. is less rounded on the edges) than the pictures and the hammer marks are more subtle. You should expect some variation in handmade jewelry. It's a really good looking and understated ring. I got this to wear on my pinky. The one pinky ring I own was my late fathers and while it has sentimental value, it's a large solid gold ring. I really like Studebaker's work and I wanted something a bit more rugged and more understated. I opted for the work patina and no engraving as I think the hammer marks provide plenty of interest and a surface that is not just flat. One thing to note: when the ring first arrived, I thought my order was mixed up because it had every appearance of patinaed silver. There was no sterling stamp so I assumed it had something to do with the alloy. I asked customer service because I wanted the warm tones of the patinaed brass. They informed me that it would, indeed begin to warm up as I wore it. Sure enough, after a few days it began to take on the warmer yellow hue of patinaed brass. Really, really good looking and wears very nicely on the pinky, though it would look good on any finger on which you chose to wear it.
