      "Of the set of 10, 2 of the gems seemed to have a slight color change going from penlight to daylight-fluorescent illumination (I tried sunlight too, no improvement). The remaining 8 really didn't change at all; remained a light greenish yellow. Those that did change color were a slight pinkish. It's a barely noticeable change. Other than that the gems are 4mm, a good size for the rarer garnets, and they were reasonable clarity. I think I'll send these back."
