Product Description

Appraised $1000 Akoya Saltwater Cultured Pearl Necklace. The perfect complement to any classic wardrobe, our 18" cultured Akoya pearl necklace is a gorgeous choice. These AAA-rated pearls are a natural white color, rated for their uniform smooth surfaces, gleaming luster, perfectly round shape and thick nacre. Once we've hand selected each bead, we professionally string the necklace on fine silk, hand knotting between each individual pearl, then finish it with a 14K yellow gold clasp. This lovely piece of jewelry features beads measuring from 5.5 to 6 mm in diameter, for that classic Jackie O look. It will arrive at your home in a lovely leatherette box showcasing its beauty.

Don't fret about sacrificing quality with Augustina Jewelry on Amazon.com - we'll even send along a copy of the appraisal.

Customer Reviews

Horrible quality
They advertise the necklace as being appraised, however, in a response to the complaint I sent the company replied:

"Please understand that original appraisals from certified appraisers cost between $120 to $150 each in nationwide market. Thus we are not able to send the original appraisals along the order. The copy of the appraisal is for reference purposes only."

Obviously each individual necklace is not appraised, and the company sends a copy of an appraisal for a similar necklace. The appraisal itself refers to a particular necklace, not a group of necklaces. There is no guarantee that the necklace you receive has actually been appraised at all.

The reason I am writing this is because I received a horrible quality necklace with many pits and a very dull luster. It is frustrating to me that the company thinks it is okay to present something as being actually appraised when it in fact has not been.

Almost perfect.
The necklace is beautiful and will be the perfect wedding gift to my fiancee. I wan't very impressed by the box it arrived in. The necklace was cramped and needed to lay flat a while before it was presentable. Other then that, I can't wait to give it to her!

Everything nature can offer (and More)
All I can say is that they were a gift for my wife and she hasn't taken them off since. That's what I call a Happy Anniversary!!!
