I ordered this in silver for my 14 year old son for Christmas.  He had wanted a cross pendant, but wanted something a little different.  This was perfect.  You can't go wrong with this handcrafted piece.  He has gotten a lot of compliments on it.  It is the perfect size and the cord is great because the length is adjustable.  The only improvement that I could suggest would be using a leather cord as opposed to the waxed plastic one.  For what it cost, I could always buy a different one if it really mattered.  My son doesn't care at all.  Shipping was prompt and the seller did a great job with packaging.  I would recommend buying this item without question.
