This is a very nice pendant, as one reviewer described. But when I opened the package I was surprised. It is definitely not the size stated and looks to be maybe .75 ct. The opening is too small for the complimentary necklace they sent to go with it. I am grateful for the necklace and may be able to use it for something else, but I have nothing that would fit for this tiny tiny opening on this pendant. Nothing can possible fit in there to put a necklace of any size through it without taking the loop off the end of the necklace and reapplying it somehow after you fit it into the opening of the pendant. It is much smaller than the description, I am afraid, even though the stone itself has sparkle and is very pretty. I am sorry to say it but it is the truth. I ordered two of them and they were both the same.
