While the size of this pendant is nice (over 1 inch in height), most of the diamond chips do not sparkle (I counted about 4-5 out of the entire pendant's worth that reflected the sunlight). In indoor lighting, the stones reflect a milky white.

According to the description, the minimum clarity of the diamonds is I3, which is as low as it goes for grading diamonds. So I expected flaws. What I didn't expect was the amount of variation in shine among the stones themselves. Having a few sparklers dispersed among the cloudy stones actually reveals the pendant's full potential, but falls short of fulfilling it.  While I love the design of this pendant and its dimensionality (and for its current price of under 70 dollars, it holds up well as a present to give away but only to someone who doesn't know much about jewelry).

Buy it if you like its design and the idea that it is a pretty heart pendant with 1 carat of diamonds, but don't expect the awesome product image to arrive at your door.
