This is a wonderful value in the Jewelry category. I purchased this for my girlfriend to wear at a formal party, and it really worked out well.

The price is a very good deal considering the artistry, and the flower itself is just the right size. (I was worried it might be a little small, because things look a lot bigger with the zoomed-in closeups on the website, but I was not disappointed. If memory serves it was about the size of a half dollar coin).

The other reviewers are correct: the chain itself is a little delicate, but it does the job. The focus of this piece remains on the pendant.

Overall a fine addition to any jewelry collection.

**Update** Amazon now lists a pair of earrings which match this pendant. I have not purchased them, but they look to be miniature identical versions of the flower pattern.

Like many others, I have mixed feelings about this item. The pendant is very pretty (although a little larger than I expected), but the chain that comes with it is ridiculous! It's much too thin and looks like it can barely support the weight of the pendant. I immediately swapped it out for a thicker, longer chain and now I'm pleased with my purchase. If it weren't for the chain problem, I would give this item 4 stars instead of 3.

I think this is just a beautiful piece. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that the chain that is comes on is very delicate and a piece like this needs a more substantial chain. Change out the chain and you have yourself a wonderful piece of jewelry.

To answer the question of demention, the flower is an 1 1/2 inches across at it widest point.

I was unsure how to really rate this. I gave it four stars only because the chain was so poor. Don't order this with the 18" chain! When I did, I was sent a 16" chain with an obvious 2" attachment that was not even the same type of chain! It looked awful. Since I wanted to give this as a gift, that was unacceptable. So I had to scramble to order a follow-up chain, at extra cost and shipping expense. However, the Pendant itself is beautiful and well-made, sure to please. As other reviewers have commented, it is well worth the price.

I have had nothing but compliments from this necklace! It goes well with everything that I wear! If you like silver colored jewelry it's a winner. I have had it 5 months and still hasn't tarnished.

**02/08-So now I am updating the review. I have had the necklace for over 3 years and it still looks great. The compliments are still flowing and I still wear it often. I am thinking of buying a backup just in case mine ever does start looking horrible. Hasn't happend yet though.

The pendant measures a hair over 1.5 inches from tip of petal to tip of opposite petal in each direction (not counting bale). The bale is pretty big to accomodate a different chain (and the clasp), not big enough for an omega, though (almost 1/4 inch). I liked the chain that came with it and left it on. The photo is very accuate, but I like to have a real measurment! The chain is decent, not one of those stock chains you sometimes get that inevitably ends up in knots (you know the type!) It has larger links on the end to make it adjustable in length.

It is very lovely on your neck or with a turtleneck sweater. It is almost modern in its simplicity, but feminine, too. It is slightly convex, not completely flat, which makes it look more like a flower. I bought it because I wanted it for the holidays (thought it looked like a pointsettia) but I think it will look nice all year long (even in summer since it also looks a little like a hibiscus!) I would have put a little crystal in the middle, but I tend to like sparkly things :) Thinking about the earrings to match, but haven't decided yet...it might be too much...maybe something smaller.

This is a beautiful necklace and just the perfect size, however I thought it would have more dimension rather than being a flat item. The gift receipient adored it and that is what it was all about!

I just received this necklace today and LOVE it. It is NOT too large, like one other reviewer had complained about. It is perfect for dressing up a casual outfit. I love it so much that I will be getting the matching sterling earrings, also sold here on Amazon. You would pay at least $40-50+ at a department store for a similar design. I could not be more pleased and think this necklace is a great value.

I bought this for my wife, the pendent is great, it looks nice and seems to to be worth the price, but the free chain that is included is very thin and low quality...stuck out like a sore thumb when she opened the gift, "oh this chain is really bad". Took the glory away form the pendent.

I just got this item and its very pretty, i got the matching earrings and they look nice. my only problem is that i expected it to be a lot bigger. it would be really usefull if in the description someone would add the size: its a little bit bigger than a quarter...
