I have purchased jewelry from Amazon multiple times in the past. So far, I have never been disappointed. This beautiful piece arrived well packaged-- definitely gift-able. It is a very sturdy piece and looks a lot pricier than it is. In fact, it's very similar to a necklace I purchased for $125. I wish I had seen this one first. It is definitely worth the price. The color and style will go with a variety of different outfits. You will not be disappointed with your purchase. If, however, you do not have the same opinion as I did, Amazon's return program is wonderful and easy.
