It took me about two months to talk myself into getting this pendant and I am happy to say it is as nice as I had hoped it would be. It's a nice design and the stones are clear and well cut. I did move the pendant off of the chain it came with to a leather braided necklace - it gave it an extra shot of "wow".
I was very pleased with the bracelet. It is beautifully made and super high quality. I am going to ask whether the artist could make one in a slightly smaller size for my mother.
I have one for each of my children and now getting the ones for my grandchildren as they are born. I truly love these. I also have the earrings and rings to go with each one so I have a full wardrobe of birthstone jewelry for each of my children and grandchildren. I also gift these to people for their b'days and they have been loved each time.
