I MUST SAY, THE QUALITY IS GREAT .PRICE IS GREAT, CLASP IS STURDY AND STRONG, TO SAY THE LEAST .BUT THERE IS JUST TO MUCH STAINLESS STEEL ON THIS ITEM .I BOUGHT FOR MY WIFE AND HAD TO RETURN IT .THE CLOSE UP PIC OF IT IS WHAT GOT ME TO BUY IT BUT IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY AT THE NECLACE PIC IN THE BACK GROUND YOU CAN KIND OF SEE ITS JUST TO MUCH OF A METAL CHAIN THAN OF A PEARL NECKLACE. THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY NICE IF THEY WOULD HAVE SAVED SOME MONEY ON THE STAINLESS STEEL AND MADE THE PEARLS MORE PROMINENT .ITS A VERY GOOD CHAIN AND HEAVY .BUT THEY KILLED THE ELAGENCE WITH ALL THE METAL ..SORRY BEING HONEST
