This is the first time I have bought from this Etsy store. Great experience! The necklace is of a superb quality. Jean was prompt in messaging me with shipping details, and of course he shipped promptly! Packaging was very secure. I will not hesitate to buy again from him! He has beautiful, rare pieces. Highly recommend!
