To see a world in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.

Is it really read crystals or is it just red enamel?
If both the rings have the Alchemy trademarks inside, then they are both genuine, but I suspect the one on the right with the red eyes is a fake.
Alchemy sometimes changes the colour of the crystal they use for some design, but this would be the first time that I saw they added crystals to a design they first made without them, and still call it with the same name.
As I said, they need one ore more of the following trademarks inside the band (plus for rings, Alchemy also has the size stamped inside):

Well, if it has the trademarks on the inside of the band, then it's an original.
Another idea that comes to mind is that the original owner just glued the crystals inside of the eye sockets. I saw quite a number of Alchemy items on ebay being sold with various defects where people removed parts of the original design or had the pieces partially altered in some way. People who aren't familiar with the Alchemy catalogue would still consider those items pretty and wouldn't notice that they were altered.

Thank you Magnolia.
But,I do not think that is a personal act, simple installation crystal stone, crystal made of black side is not easy.
