I love this necklace when i first got it.  The color of the center stone is deep, and the marcasites gave it a nice sparkle.  How ever after wearing it for a few weeks the Marcasites began to fall out then the chain broke, but it was past its limited warrente.  So I guess it an ok piece if you only wish to wear it a few hours at a time. If you are looking for a daily wear necklace this is not the one for you.
