I received this ring as a birthday present. When I was taking ring size measurements, mine ended up being around 8.5, so I was a bit disappointed to find the more limited range in sizes. However, when I got the ring and put it on, it turned out the size 8 was actually just the right size, in a way I can easily take it off but still wear it comfortably - the 8.5 might have been a miscalculation on my part, then. I now wear the ring either on my finger, or around a necklace in the same fashion as Frodo did in case I'm afraid of losing the ring in public (can't lose my precious...). Overall, I'm really happy with the ring and hope I'll have it around with me for a long time.
