I was pleasantly surprised when I opened my package. This pendant is far more than I expected. It isn't too small or too big. It's the perfect size for wearing with everything and the stones are a beautiful color. Since garnet is my birthstone I have seen  many different shades of garnet and this one is perfect! I am extremely happy with my purchase in spite of negative reviews about the chain. The pendant is worth buying another chain if desired. I purchased a white gold singapore chain from Amazon to wear it on and have received countless compliments on the necklace. I highly recommend this pendant if you want a classy look that you can wear with anything; you can dress it up or down. Shipping was prompt as usual with Amazon Prime!
