This is a beautiful pendant and the chain is delicate and beautiful. The pendant comes in a very nice wood box that is padded inside. It also comes with instructions on cleaning. My wife of 29 years loves it. I purchased it just before valentines day (2008). We normally do not exchange gifts for valentines day but the pendant was down from $999 to $499 to $279. My wife deserves much more than that for putting up with me for so long.

I would highly recommend this pendant and chain to anyone.

I was very pleased with the purchase and it arrived just in time for my wife's birthday and Valentine's Day. I used the Super Saver Shipping option and was not disappointed. My wife had a appraisal done for insurance purposes and the color and clarity was spot on. I was able to insure for more than I paid for the necklace because it appraised higher. Will definitely shop for jewelry here again.

Returned it... clasp did not work properly. But more importantly - the pendant was very small. Beautiful but small.

The pendant looks much nicer than ones our friends purchased at local stores. There is a quality issue regarding how the pendant is attached to the chain. The pendant fell off the chain after my wife having worn it only 3 times. Fortunately we did not lose the pendant but now need to find a jeweler to repair what should not need repairing.

I was looking for something different to give to my wife for Christmas (2007) and this looked good online. I was a little hesitant, but when I received it and she opened it on Christmas morning, we were both very pleasantly surprised! I would highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a bargain, but also something that returns much more for the price than expected.

My wife loved the neckless. It was very beautiful and A+ quality. First time I purchased jewelry from Amazon and was quite pleased with the item. It was as described and I will buy again. Thanks.

I received this necklace yesterday and gave it to my wife early as we are about to go on a cruise and I felt she could wear it while we were gone. I was totally embarrassed when she opened the box. The chain was in a knot that looked like someone spent the whole day tying it up. There was only 1" of chain there, the rest of it was in a huge knot. I had to take it to a jeweler and it took him almost an hour and cost me an additional $25.00 and he spoke very poorly of the quality of the necklace. I will never buy from this company again. If they can't check the items prior to shipping, I had rather pay a few dollars more to get better service.

A bit smaller than I have expected..but considering the price, it's a pretty good buy! Sparks nicely in sunshine! Girlfriend loved it! So, go ahead!

My fiance loved this pendant as her Christmas gift. It is absolutely stunning. Most importantly, she never seems to want to take it off.

Bought this as a gift for my girlfriend. She loved it. Price vs. carat, color, clarity was best deal out there. Recommended.

This necklace is indeed small as the 7 diamonds equal only ½ carat (as advertised) but the diamonds are of pretty good quality. I had a local jeweler look at the necklace and it appeared to be closely in line with the Amazon rating for the color and clarity. The box chain necklace is small and unfortunately, the pendant has a tendency to flip over, rather than facing forward. If you're looking for an affordable journey necklace, the $300 that this was purchased for is a good price. The recipient of this purchase was very pleased with the gift.

It's easy to read the title quickly and ignore the longer description. 1/2 carats is the approximate total weight of the 7 diamonds, not the weight per diamond. At first, this "journey" pendant appeared diminutive to my eyes. It's not the pendulous chain of rocks Richard Burton would have purchased for Elizabeth Taylor, but it's luminescent, alluring, and guaranteed to sparkle in the eyes of the receiver. It's also an undeniable value at this price--high-quality diamonds carefully mounted, arranged, and strung. As for the number "7" and the slightly shortened length of the chain (accounting for the slight curve in the pendant), those details are not accidental, incidental, random or flawed. They're integral with the numerology and symbolism of the journey design. (The owner may wish to research the meanings for herself, though the imagination can do just as well.)

This was my first purchase of jewelry through Amazon. I have purchase many other products from Amazon, so I was pretty confident.

I was not disappointed.

The pendant looks very nice. I am happy to be giving this as a Christmas gift this year. As one of the previous reviewers said, it would be good to upgrade the packaging. I received the pendant in a typical jewelry box. It appears that the packaging changes from time to time.

I was hoping it would be a little larger, but the pendant was a well-received gift.

This is a great purchase, the individual diamonds really show and sparkle. I have seen some negative reviews for the smaller version of this necklace, do not be deterred, THIS is a great piece at a great price.

If you give this as a gift, it will be well received.

The diamonds have very good clarity, they are matched well and clear. The cut is good, and the mounting is secure. The only thing that I would change is the length of the chain. I replaced the 18 inch one with a 20 inch chain and it is much better.

Well being the first time to buy a neckless over the internet without seeing what you are buying other than a picture and a discribtion.I was not dissapointed the neckless was better than it was discribed.the diamonds were very clear and was looked at by a local jewely store because of the latch and they them self said it was a very nice piece and the clarity was excellent. So was a good buying experince

Very pleased with the design and appearance. Lovely pendant on very tightly made white gold box chain. Oppotunity for improvement: packaging. Would have preferred simple jewelry box to plastic bag inside cardboard sleeve-type box. My wife loves it.
