Amazon.com Product Description Round and marquise-shaped amethyst stones form bright butterfly wings in this charming sterling silver pendant. The stones are held securely in prong settings and frame a silver centerpiece detailed with polished bead accents. Appointed with a split bale, this pendant slides along an 18-inch sterling silver frozantin chain that fastens in back with a spring ring clasp. Amethyst, the birthstone for February, is a gemstone that has been prized by royalty throughout the ages for its regal purple color.

Delicate and pretty December 5, 2008 Annaed119 (Indiana, USA) I purchased this necklace as a gift and think it is a beautiful and dainty piece of jewelery. Yes, as some reviewers stated, it is small. The description states that the pendant is 10mm by 10mm...translation: small! It is perfect size for a young lady or a petite woman. I especially like how well the stones seem to be set and really appreciate the bail on the pendant being large enough to accomodate a satin cord necklace or other necklace with larger diameter than the one shipped with the pendant. A very good purchase in my book!
Small but special, Great for a low price! November 22, 2008 Tracy L. Townsend I think that this is a great product, but keep in mind the small size. The dimensions that are given are accurate, but the picture is about at 4 times magnification. Bear in mind the chain is a bit weak, and that the butterfly will be small. For the price it is a good buy, however, and it made my gf really happy.
Much more tiny than I expected August 26, 2008 AmazonShoppingLover The butterfly was so much smaller than I expected. I did not see the size until my niece took it out of the box. She acted pleased but I thought she may have been hiding what she really thought. I was very disappointed. My niece is 27 years old and the necklace was more the size for a small child, yet far to small to be safe for very small children.
It would be great to have an idea of what size jewelry pieces are before you buy. Use some kind of size meter or on screen measuring method.
Way to small July 30, 2008 J.P Vigaletto (The Empire State) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After reading some reviews that this was suitable for a child because of its small size I went and bought this for my 10 year old niece, AND LET ME TELL YOU this is WAY TO SMALL, IT IS ABOUT THE SIZE OF A LITTLE GIRLS PINKY NAIL AND THE CHAIN IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO BREAK ITS FLIMSY STRUCTURE. THIS MAY BE SUITABLE for a 5 year old but then the chain would be to long, its worth about 12 dollars not [...] or [...].
The only bright spot is amazons quick shipping and service which i never have a problem with. Im thinking of returning it as even the 10 year old is not happy with it, She says its nice, but you could tell shes not overjoyed with it,ohh well ill never buy another piece of jewley from here as you really have to see it live and in person. SAVE YOUR MONEY. P.S I really hate writting bad reviews so now im gonna go and give a great review on a wine decanter i bought from amazon that was really great.Have a good day and go to a flea market or county fair for something like this.

Small, but beautiful (my mother loves it) July 19, 2008 Luthian (Infinity) I purchased this necklace along with the earrings as a gift for my mom for Mother's day. True, I was surprised by the size, but it all worked out in the end because my mother loves small jewelry. To be perfectly honest, I was afraid it would be too big. My mother greatly dislikes heavy necklaces and earring as she finds them distracting. The butterfly on both the necklace and the earrings is the same size - ruffly the size of a dime.
This set had well-cut medium to light stones with no visible occlusions. The metal work seems sturdy for its size, and the chain seems rather delicate. I may look into a new chain, as I am not truly confident in the one shipped.
AS A SIDE NOTE: It is a VERY good idea to purchase a separate chain when buying a piece over the internet, in person if you can. The same applies to having spare earing backs in the appropriate metal, which can be purchased through jewelry supple sites (every woman should have some spares on hand!). if there are nics or dull spots and you are not comfortable polishing the metal yourself (this can be an affect of the casting process) most jewelers will be more then happy to do it for you for a small fee... just make sure to accompany any polishing that is done to very valuable pieces!
NOT TO SELLERS/AMAZON: Please, please, PLEASE include dimensions. Even better, place a recognizable object (currency works well) next to the piece that is of relative size so that the buyer has a very clear idea of what they are buying. They will thank you for it by having more confidence in the size of the piece, thus making your goods more attractive!
