I bought this as a gift for my wife for our anniversary. She had always wanted some pearls and she liked the interesting colour these offered. The great thing about these were the price. I got them for around $50, which was a steal. My only concern is that one of the earrings broke about a month after we got them. The strands are still going strong, though. So, an all right purchase for us. If they weren't so inexpensive I would have been furious, but you get what you pay for.
