"Stone arrived darker than online image...I love it. Very even color throughout. Hard to imagine such an incredible cut in a relatively small gem. Must of been a lot of work for the gem cutter. It is going to become a single stud earring. I'm a redheaded guy...great for my coloring. Catches the light very, very nicely. Cannot believe the price. What a score. :)"
