Got this for the wife for her birthday. It looks nice in pics online, but in person it looks fantastic. The colors and the sheen have a quality beyond what I had expected. The build quality and the general craftmanship of this set seems a step above too. My sister works in jewelry, didn't know I bought this, and at the party explained the subtle indications that reveal how whoever crafted this design really understood the interplay of color and emotion and light. I found this, just random browsing, and it might be the best gift I've given yet.

The multicolor pearls are a good size and vibrant in color, and the green pearls in particular pop against the rest even though they don't show up very well in the photo here. The earrings I received were the cream pearls, not the brown ones in the photo, but that actually works better for me anyway. The set works with many different outfits. In fact, this was the only necklace I brought on a recent vacation. I was able to plan a variety of outfits to match it.

Two things disappointed me, though: The necklace is actually closer to 16 inches than 18. It's just a touch longer than a choker and sits at the base of my clavical. The shepherd's hook clasp is also very difficult to use. I can't put the necklace on myself and my husband and sister, who I have both asked to help me, found it difficult, too. Overall, though, it was a good deal for the money.
