actually nicer than stuff hanging on display counters at mabys and spears and costs ten times less cannot go wrong on this [SEP] looks as nice in person as the picture lays nice and flat and has more of a comfortable rope feel than a scratchy necklace feel which is a nice surprise the stone is shiny and pretty especially at a foot or more away where most people will be looking at it so the overall look is one of a much more costly piece of jewelry no one would guess it at a few bucks period
