"great necklace!"
The necklace is very nice but a bit short for an average neck. I wish it was two inches longer :)

"Bold and bohemian"
This is a thick necklace, a statement piece, I think, that is beautifully made. I had doubts about the clasp before buying, but it seems to hold pretty securely. I wouldnt necessarily wear it to work as a professional piece, but for casual wear it works great!
