My fiancée will love this necklace for a birthday present. It is a wonderful statement piece and I am sure this piece will mesh with her style in jewelry. Congrats to the artist and her creativity. Thank you

"Disappointing"
I'd looked at this for months as I love the natural rock in this color, but was disappointed. First, the rock beads don't dangle from the chain as you might think. They are sewn onto a thick band of doubled-over black material that bends a bit but is quite stiff. Only the very bottom of the rock area is loose. As a result, the rock field doesn't drape or adjust to your movement. Second, it's much shorter than I expected. It's really a choker necklace, which I normally don't wear, and it doesn't work for me even if I tried because it's too bulky and bold for either office or casual wear and too funky for formal dress-up occasions. I missed the return deadline, so I'm stuck with it, but now I can't think what I'd use this for.
