Amazon.com Product Description:
An oval turquoise cabochon is the centerpiece of this beautiful sterling silver pendant. Held in a bezel setting below an ornate silver swirl design, the 13 by 8 millimeter turquoise stone has the striking blue-green color and natural mottled appearance that is characteristic of this widely revered, earth-grounding stone. A sacred stone to many American native tribes, turquoise is thought to combine the energies of earth and sky, and is often used as a stone of protection and healing. Wear this pendant as a talisman, or simply as a beautiful accent piece. Fitted with a tube-shaped bale, it slides along a silky smooth 18-inch snake chain that fastens with a lobster-claw clasp.

Rating : - Pretty, small like others have said
This piece is very pretty but smaller than it looks, as others have said. The back of the oval measures 5/8" by 1/2", with the stone itself a bit smaller. The total length of the piece, from the back, measures 7/8", including the loop that holds the chain. I'm not a big-jewelry wearer, so for me this piece is very nice. I bought the scroll earrings too, which look great with it.
