Overall, very happy with the purchase! Shipping was quick with tracking. The parcel was securely packaged and nicely presented; however, the label had almost fallen off! The last time a label fell off one of my parcels, it took me four months to get it 
, fortunately, it didn't fall off completely this time. 
As for the stones themselves, they're quite pretty with the pinkish-orange colour and decent cutting. I was hoping to avoid treatments and didn't realize it was clarity enhanced until after making the purchase; this is my fault though for not reading the description carefully enough.
The colour is a bit lighter and more orangey than the pictures; I'm not really sure that the stones would be considered "bixbite," but they are nice pretty little orangy/pink beryls. I will definitely be buying from Yvonne again! Any other Etsy sellers you would recommend? I'm after small loose emeralds, sapphires, spinels, and zircons (untreated).
I don't wear jewelry, so my collecting is just for enjoying the beauty of the gems. Maybe one day when I have someone special, I can make something beautiful and meaningful for her with my collection!
Also, there one thing up for me: why is the business called CecileRaleyDesigns if the owner's name is Yvonne Raley? Not that it matters, haha. Just curious. Is there an owner named Cecile?
It is very hard to take a good picture of gemstones, but I tried my best to at least capture the colour accurately.
