The citrine stone has a large crack/chip in the back that is magnified when looking through the front. This ruins the piece! Where is the quality control? When this stone was set, what was the jeweler thinking? As soon as you look at it your eyes are drawn to the defect. Not Good! Now the problem is ours, it seems we cannot echange just one piece of this set. We have to send the entire set back and hope we recieve a quality set in return. Some may think this is harsh, but this is not some machine made piece. A person held this in their hand, saw the defect, and shipped it anyway! Shame on you Amazon for letting defective jewerly be sold from your own collection, and bringing sadness to my children! Could be a nice set, but getting 1 star for lack of quality control!

That being said, however, they do have nice color to them. The chains are very delicate and pretty. <br /> The necklaces all come packed in a long white sleeve (inside are the 5 black boxes). So, you could give these all as one gift or split them up. <br /> All in all, worth the sale price. Recommend. Very Pretty and Delicate.

Also, the colors of the amethyst and the blue topaz, and to a lesser degree, the citrine, are not true on the website. The blue topaz almost looks clear. Only in the light can you get the traces of blue, and the amethyst is very light as well. The peridot is gorgeous, and the garnet is a dark stone to begin with, so that's not a problem. They did not come in blue pouches, as was specified; rather, they came in five small black boxes which were put together with a white cardstock sleeve in a long strip. I ordered the matching earrings as well, and they do match perfectly. Be aware that nowhere on the boxes does it tell what the stones are or that it is sterling silver, or any information whatsoever. <br />So, except for the washed out color on a couple of the stones, I am thrilled, especially with the price (I also got the 30% discount). Awesome Deal, but be prepared for a color difference on two…

Garnet: 18×5mm; stone alone: 9×5mm

Citrine: 18×6mm; stone alone: 8×6mm

Amethyst: 16×8mm; stone alone: 8mm

Blue Topaz: 17×6mm; stone alone: 9×6mm

Peridot: 17×7mm; stone alone: 7mm

All except the peridot appear flawless to the eye, and even the wisp of inclusion in the peridot pendant is barely visible in sunlight (the color is a bit darker than shown in the product image, a brilliant apple green). I got them for under 8 dollars per pendant, but even at full price, the quality of the pendants makes purchasing this set worth it.

I actually broke it out into 5 Christmas gifts (pendant + matching earrings) for coworkers. When I received them I was amazed at just how nice they were. The recipients were thrilled. They each loved their gift. I was extremely pleased that the quality was just as others had commented on. In fact, once I saw them it was hard to give them away! Better than I expected!

The stones are set well and just the right size to wear. The chains are weak. I have broken two of them already. But for the price, just having the pendants to wear with a better chain I already have, it was well worth the purchase. Sterling SIlver Pendant Set
