Do Not Buy

lizfird9999 from 01201, Nov 25, 2009

I was very upset when i received this piece. The pendant is very small and the chain is tiny, there are many flaws in the pendant it looks like someone just threw it together without any effort. This is the fist piece of jewelry I purchased from here that was a dissappointment.

good purchase

nursegigi from Boston, MA, Nov 8, 2009

I like this pendant, although I think the dark gemstone on the bottom is a bit too big - it almost overpowers the feature that should be showcased, ie, the Roman glass. No regrets about this purchase, though. It's pretty. The real drawback about this necklace is the chain that it's on, which can be seen in the photo - it's okay looking, but it's a pain to use. A normal clasp on the chain would have greatly improved the quality and wearability of this necklace. I plan on putting the pendant on a different copper chain.

Poor workmanship

cowboydog from Arizona, Jan 9, 2008

I've purchased Roman glass from Overstock before, so I was therefore surprised at the poor workmanship displayed on this necklace.

Looks small and somewhat cheap

cezzell from Greenville, KY, Jan 8, 2008

I loved the idea of giving my sister, a lover of history, a necklace containing glass from the Roman Empire! And, it was a beautiful piece (at least in the picture). When I received it, my heart sunk. It's so small and light--the copper chain so cheap-looking. My sister still loved it because of its uniqueness and she believes that with time the copper chain's appearance will improve.
