I received this pendant as a gift.  It is beautiful.  It is well constucted and nicely sized. It came adorned with Swarovski's version of a March birthstone.  Affordable aquamarine is such a pale sea-blue that the color is ethereal.  Many jewelers treat aquamarines with heat or chemicals or radiation to make them a deeper blue/green but to me it just makes them flawed and ingenuine.  I much prefer the pale color so with the giver's permission I returned this gift and replaced it with the plain angel (sans Swarovski).
