For the price these are great. My wife and I don't like to spend a lot on gifts for each other which was why I found these. They are inexpensive but still look nice. I thought they were a little bigger than they are but they are OK which is the reason for 4 stars. My wife likes them and wears them all the time but they definitely don't have the impact of real pearls that are ten times more expensive but who will ever be able to tell. If you, your wife or your girlfriend just like nice inexpensive jewelry then this is for you. I recommend this.
