I'm pleased with my purchase. The pearl is a lustrous, coppery brown in a sleek yellow gold corkscrew setting. The pearl pendant is suspended by a 16-inch delicate, open-weave gold chain. This necklace is small but its unique design and setting make a big statement. I bought it for my mom for Christmas. I think it will look perfect on her petite frame--it would get lost on a larger-framed woman.
