The quality of these is wonderful! Beautiful jewels made from Faux Turquoise Glass....not the painted on stuff, the matrix and pattern is mottled throughout the glass itself. You get FOUR of these little beauties, (the picture shows several, you will get FOUR)They do have pointed backs, they were meant to be placed in settings once upon a time. What I do is flip them over and glue them top down, leaving the pointed end up, and then bead around them. But you could always put them in a setting, and then glue them down to use in beadwork, either way is beautiful! Each stone measures 13x8mm.
