Did a nice job on the graduated sizes and looked great that way. My necklace is pink with just a very few greyish pearls more in the back. Was a little smaller length then stated. I just very carefuly stretched the string over a few days and made it fit better, never holding onto the clasp. I had to do the same with my real ones after re-stringing, thanks to my lovely jewler and her husband who fixed them in less then a day for a holiday pty when the string broke at the clasp. These have the nice same weight too.
