my pendant sparkles beautifully, it's a pretty piece and good quality. I have a few pieces form Ti Sento and love them all. I have noticed that the weight and quality have dropped a little over the years. I was especially disappointed with the cord on which the beautiful pendant hangs from. I have some already and noticed this new one is not the best quality or finish and without the metal tips. The pendant I love, but I wouldn't rate the cords as the usual Ti Sento quality which is a pity
