"I just received my morganite gemstone today and it really has a beautiful sparkle to it but the color was very pale pink and does not quite match my other stones that I purchased . It is still a beautiful piece and I am going to mount it in to make myself a pendant which I purchase from JTV so I will just be snapping it in place and I will be ready to wear it."
