Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

I had bought this to wear to a friend's wedding party. I did not buy it on sale or anything and I had read the reviews with mixed reactions from everyone. The pearls on my necklace were almost scratch/dent free but one of my earrings had a few scratches and I wouldn't have minded if it was closer to the stud of the earring but one of them is on the surface. Luckily no one looks closely at my ear. The shape is all uniformed and circular as I expected it to be.

I purchased this set as a gift for my wife, after being disappointed with the Single Strand 18 Inch 7-8mm White Freshwater Cultured Pearl Necklace. Although the two necklaces cost about the same, the difference between the two is like night and day. The necklace in this set had pearls that were all round or near-round (you really need to examine the pearls closely to see ones that don't look round), and you could tell that the best pearls are in the front, while flawed pearls are near the clasp. The color of the pearls were surprisingly consistent, and well-matched throughout the strand. As far as flaws go, they're definitely there, and you don't need to look too hard to see them -- but again, the pearls like that were all by the clasp. Granted, this isn't very helpful if the wearer has short hair, but otherwise, nobody would know they're there. I wasn't fortunate enough to get this when it was in the Gold Box or Lightning Deal, but at Amazon's normal price, it's still a very good value. My only real gripe is that everything arrives in a small pouch. I would have liked a better presentation for gift giving, but for the quality you get at this price, it's hard to complain.

The pearls themselves are just the right size and certainly carry a feminine glow about them; well, feminine glow may be too weak a word. These things look hot and simply reek of sex. There is something about pearls that seem to turn most guys (and girls) on. Believe me, this set, which include the pearl ear studs, work! Like other reviewers here, I examined these quite closely and for the life of me I cannot find any of the flaws they speak of. The pearls are smooth and have that deep almost mystic look about them. Now keep in mind that the cost of these pearls do not buy you a string of pearls that normally sell for a few thousand dollars and you can certainly tell the difference if you lay them beside a set of matched, perfect pearls, but that is okay. There are times when it is simply prudent to wear these rather than the expensive kind. You do get your monies worth with this set though; no doubt about it.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Not an heirloom, but a good value, June 15, 2009 By  L. Storlie "AmazonEnthusiast" (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews    Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) I purchased this set for around $140. For the size, uniformity of shape, color and lustre, this set remains one of my favorite in my collection. The pearls are a cream white, great shine, and substantial looking. Be forewarned, though, you ARE getting what you paid for. Many of the pearls in the necklace are deeply pitted, although they've been strung close to the clasp (and I have long hair that covers that area of the necklace... so who cares?) Plus, the pits aren't big enough to ruin the round shape (and these are really, truely round, no oblong "cheater" pearls in this set.) All in all, a great "starter" or "daily wear" set to have, especially if you're saving your $4,000 Mikimoto strand for special occasions.

Cowan" (Memphis, TN) - See all my reviews    I have had these in my shopping cart for two months before I finally bought them. Don't let the low price scare you. These pearls are the real deal. I found three or four pearls on the necklace with very slight blemishes, nothing at all to have stopped me from buying them if I had seen them before buying. The color and luster are just beautiful. You can buy with confidence. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews   Was this review helpful to you?    Report this | Permalink  Comment

I cannot begin to express the joy I felt when I looked this necklace over. I saw only the most minimal of flaws on the surface of the pearls. I have seen many pearls since in stores and as I compare them, I can't believe the deal I got. Especially over the freshwater pearls of the same size. I would and do, recommend this product to any of my friends. I gave this to one of my dearest friends as a graduation present. It is the perfect first set of pearls for a young woman.
