I purchased 4 gemstones in different sizes to be able to make a family ring for my granddaughter. I got exactly what I saw and they are absolutely beautiful! Shipping was quick compared to other gem stores I have dealt with! I will definitely order more stones from your company, as I am a collector and have several stones. You are my new go to company in the future

On the clarity options it goes "and better" so if youre looking for si specifically and you click si and better it still shows you basically everything. It just removes the opaques. Itd be nice if it was vs only, vss only, si only, etc
