I ordered these for my wedding when my original plans for jewelry fell through at the last minute. They arrived quickly and originally exceeded my expectations considering the low price. I wasn't expecting any real luster like with the good quality real pearls but these did have a shine to them.

I wore them for two hours and put them back in the bag they came in, which is a thin blue drawstring type jewelry bag. The next day when I set the bag down on a tabletop, the string broke apart and the pearls all fell off. I restrung them using actual jewelry wire that looks similar to fishing line. I purchased some at Michael's and it was very inexpensive. Now the necklace looks much better and I wear it occasionally with no issues. I disliked the cheap string they came on, and for $14 I still would've liked to see a cheap jewelry material instead of frayed string.
