This is a very beautiful, but delicate cross. I wish it just a tad thicker, but the price is perfect for a first piece of nice jewelry for a young lady. The quality seems as expected, similar to anything you'd buy at a retailer, but less expensive here. We had this over-nighted when illness prevented us from getting to a local retailer in time to buy a gift and wer're very pleased. It's small enough to feel dainty, but not too small. It's really a pendant more than a charm; the bail is a necklace bail.
