"This is a beautiful pink tourmaline, and the size is just perfect. I haven't yet decided what I'm going to do with it but I do know that I will be making some type of jewelry with it. Keep up the great work JTV you have a lasting customer. And I am a very picky person when it comes to my jewelry. Every since I started watching JTV I don't bother with any of the other stations anymore nor do I bother to buy from the jewelry stores either because I know I'm going to get the best value for the money."
