Necklace is very pretty. Came exactly as described. Purchased the 18" and 16" too. Hopefully it really will be tarnish free. Am a little disappointed though with the 16". It was advertised with having a lobster claw clasp, and it doesn't. Also said it came with blue velvet pouch, it didn't. Also it is only about 15/5". I did a return and received another in the same condition.
