Note on Gemstones: I am including with my gemstone description the original information and picture from the vendor (in Thailand) I acquired them from. These are all gemstones I love but cannot afford or do not have the ability to set at this time. I am not a gemstone expert.

**This very beautiful gemstone is much whiter than the picture given and has a groove all around the base to facilitate setting.**
