"I bought three of these stones for matching pendants for myself, my daughter-in-law and my granddaughter. We enjoy a common bond and while each one is different, we are the same. Same with these stones. Each is a little different in color intensity, but overall they are beautiful. Big and bold. We love the pear shape. Thank you!"
