This piece is around my neck all the time. It is so well made, the weight is great - just enough to remind me it is there - and it has kept it's shine and luster.
I am a diver and I get compliments whenever anyone sees it. It is a constant reminder to stay calm.
I was very impressed by the workmanship and detail. It was like history for me since I was not familiar with the Banyan tree and how unique it is to India. The Amethyst is the perfect size for the necklace, and I love it.
