When I purchased mine, the only color in stock was the cream. I bought a few of them. One, which had some very nice veining in the stone, I left as it was. The others I used black acrylic to paint a base color on the stone, then did a second coat with metallic acrylic. Once it was completely dry I sealed it with brush-on, water-based sealer. They are wonderful, lovely and unique. I couldn't be happier with them. It's a good sized piece and the stone sets the silver setting off beautifully. Definitely worth the price.

Kitties are very stylish on this necklace. Almost a 5 on this one. It is smaller than what it looks like on the pic but is not too small. I bought the rope chain to go with it. You have to be very careful with it because it is very thin and can get bent easily. My dog touched it with his claw and it got bent. I was able to straighten it out somewhat. Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would recommend it. The price is right.
