Sterling Silver Moonstone & Black Spinel Beaded Choker Necklace

I received this necklace, but the beads are a lot smaller than pictured and described. It says 4mm beads but the description I received in the mail says approx. 3mm. I measured the beads because it's obvious how much smaller the beads are than the product being advertised, and its not even 2mm!

I love everything about this necklace EXCEPT the moonstone (the center piece) has a round (front side) and a flat (back side) and the stone refuses to stay with the round side facing outward. No matter how many ways I clasp it, the stone flips around so the that the flat, back side is in front. I wouldn’t mind, however the flat side lacks the beautiful coloration of the rounded side. Of course this bothers me to no end! If the stone had the same finish on both sides this wouldn’t be an issue. But it is!

This is a nice short necklace great for a petite person with a thin neck. So few actually fit me as well as this necklace which adds to my frustration about not keeping it. The moonstone in the center has a right side and a wrong side and, at least on me, the wrong side always faces out so one sees the flat back, not the rounded part, of the stone.

Loved everything about it except the moonstone had a dark "spot" in it. The moonstone is small (smaller than my pinky nail); I expected it to be flawless considering it's size. I returned it, but I'm debating whether or not to order an other one.

Its pretty, but overpriced, smaller than pictured and would be easy to break.

I was a little leery ordering an Adoronia choker due to the reviews I’d read for others. It’s a perfectly fitting adjustable choker that looks fantastic. I do feel it’s a little flimsy and am just cautious to be gentle with it. I’m 5’4” and 115lbs and it fits well!
