These 8 x 8s rock! I 'really' dig these! The hue is 'deep purple' - I was apprehensive but, they're fantastic. I picked up a pair as a gift for a loved one, too. Oh, and the etchings on the side of the studs is cool for a dude too!
The pendant is a little bit smaller than I expected but nevertheless the size is good. The stones have a nice color and are big enough to be seen without being too distracting.
This is beautiful! The stones have greater color saturation than the picture shows. The silver work is outstanding. It is very light and delicate, but has presence - exactly what I wanted.
