Great looking piece.

very nice - very hard to find a clean, modern, design elsewhere

It is exactly how I expected it to be, even more surprised. The stone is of really good color, a true deep blue. Even took it outside and it kept it's deep blue color. This is not a "bling" type of necklace (meaning it's half the surface area of the average pinky nail.) I think Blue Nile took the quality route rather than the size route on these stones. Additionally, did some search on the other sites on the internet, since there are a lot of similar jewelry sites that have a similar type of pendant necklace. Wasn't too sure of which one to go with, but felt more confident / more comfortable with the brand of Blue Nile. Am more than happy with my purchase through Blue Nile.
