Beautifully not real! [SEP] I am very pleasantly surprised with this necklace! It is very different than my usual taste in that it is a bit large and a little gaudy, but I wore it with a teal colored v-neck sweater and even my husband complimented me, and he very seldom notices what I have on. I also got compliments from several strangers. It is fun and worth the money! I like that it is not something that is purely costume jewelry NOT trying to look real.
