wow!  i was so pleasantly surprised when i opened the box!  this little pendant is just beautiful.  sparkly without having gems to worry about losing and the little danglies at the bottom just glitter and catch your eye.  definitely worth the price.  i have several of these styles of pendants.  the only thing i am wary of is the leather(?) or composite cord they're strung on.  they may not be the most durable things in the world.  there is a chain attached to the end that looks pretty dicey.  you might want to squeeze the metal a bit tighter to ensure it doesn't fall apart.  i recommend you NEVER get these types of pendants wet.  and be careful when bending over not to catch them on anything when you stand up.  these points don't detract one bit from their loveliness and i wear a different one every day.
