I have been wanting this beautiful necklace forever. Every holiday, anniversary and birthday, I’d go online and resume what eventually became a really old fight with myself. My husband and I are older, on a “fixed income”. so as much as I wanted it, I felt it was just too extravagant - a want, not a need. However, I finally gave in to myself last week after having undergone very painful emergency cardiac triple bypass surgery a few weeks ago. After first surviving Stage 4 cancer 10 years ago and now this…i finally told myself it’s time to indulge.. . and indulge I have. The necklace is 100% worth waiting for but I don’t recommend anyone else waiting as long as I did. I did do a lot of comparison shopping in the interim though so when the time was right, I wouldn’t have bought my pearls anywhere else. Thank you Pure Pearls for being here when I needed you! So very happy with them.
