“Great quality and heavy weight”

This is a beautiful sturdy piece. Sometimes pieces with this level of detail can be flimsy and easily damaged, but this will not. I love the theme of the union of heaven and earth. If you think you would like this necklace, you probably will love it--- it is even better than pictured here.

“love style and artists work”

If this had a much longer chain it would be perfect. I rarely wear it because it just doesnt look right so high on the chest.
