Hi mine has only one band , I was going to write to tell you . I'll re photograph mine from the side also. i could have sworn I had a side view , and it is almost the same. i have always loved my ring so much and everyone always wants it but I use it all the time. Since I have never seen another one it surprised me. i got mine in India and grabbed it from the new selections that the vendor had. I happened to be sitting first in line instead of down the line. Usually he would call who ever was in town at once and reveal from his buying trips as the stuff was unveiled in his show room. It was always to do with your peg on the ladder where you would sit and or how much you spent. That trip I happened to be first and was able to get some really nice things. i hope you get allot of use out of it like i have , I almost can not travel without it now !

I don't know if you saw this one but it's a toe ring and I just sent it out on approval. I had this also as long as the other ring and wore it on my finger. I think it is from the same area as the other ones we own but I'm not sure, I thought they were from the south but are probably from Gujerat or Rajasthan.
