      "This is a beautiful stone,the one i recived was .60. The only problem was i had already bought one on the auction that is outstanding. It`s only .36, But i don`t know if i will ever find another stone that will have the fire and brilliance.I guess you could say it spoil`s all the rest.But maybe if i keep buying i can find a bigger stone like it."
