It has a big blue sapphire in the center (it's a very rich, royal blue!) surrounded by rhinestones.

Hmmm I'm not sure how much international shipping would cost to send to Norway. Would you know? Maybe we could work something out ^_^

Do you know if it's a genuine sapphire?

I do not but from research the gems in his rings are often real, they almost always contain rhinestones and are all 14kt gold electroplate or sterling silver.

I would even be thrilled with 10k for it. When I scooped it up I wasn't expecting much but am so glad to see how many people appreciate it.

Size?

I honestly have no idea, I don't have a ring sizer and most of the rings I list are adjustable if I HAD to guess I would say 7 and a half maybe? My ring finger is a size 9 and it fits my pinky. I put it on top of a quarter to try and show a comparison.
