    "This stone is a good size. It is big enough so that one can appreciate and enjoy the tourmaline needles, and small enough so as not to appear vulgar. What I like the most is the one-of-a- kind quality of its natural design. No one will ever have my same stone! It will make a terrific pendant set in white gold."
