Amazon.com Product Description:
Project radiance and sophistication with this traditional Akoya cultured pearl necklace. Round white A grade Akoya cultured pearls, with a diameter of 6-6.5mm, are individually knotted to form the 18-inch necklace. This classic pearl strand is finished with a fancy filigree clasp made from bright and durable 14 karat yellow gold.
Akoya cultured pearls are produced in salt-water mollusks in Japan and China. They were the first type of pearl to be cultured, and remain the most popular and classic choice for pearl strands. Akoya cultured pearls are prized for their smoothness, roundness, and beautiful luster. Though they may look similar to freshwater cultured pearls, when the two are placed side-by-side, the Akoya pearl's superior qualities are clear.

This thing isn't worth the goldbox price. I was excited to see it until I saw it. I shouldn't have expected too much from something so cheap, but every single pearl is quite flawed. The only saving grace will be giving it to someone with poor eyesight. In addition, several of the pearls don't sit well on what looks like dental floss, which makes the necklace look like there are kinks in it. Then again, all of the features that make up its poor quality should go unnoticed from across a table or room.
I give 2 stars because it functions as intended and will be appreciated from anyone you give it to. ...but only if they love you and forgive your financial shortcomings. Don't expect to wow your significant other by giving this as a 6 month anniversary gift.
