AAA Quality 18 Inch Round 5.5-6mm White Akoya SaltWater Cultured Pearl Necklace

Great product at a great price. My wife, a former jeweley sales clerk, was impressed by the 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.

My girlfriend loved these. It is her first strand of pearls and she was very happy with them. Thanks for the great product and prompt delivery!

the salt water pearl necklace i a good quality item. it was for my wife on our anniversary . she loved it, and was well pleased with it. I also gave her the pearl earrings ordered with it. round , smooth, nice shine. a great value.

I don't usually purchase jewelry on the web, but I wasn't impressed by what my local jewelry stores had to offer or their prices. Augustina has excellent reviews, good product and excellent prices so I thought they
were worth a try. Much to my surprise the necklace arrived the day after I ordered it and I only paid a little extra for standard four day shipping!
The necklace is exactly as described and comes in a nice gift box. I had a couple of quick questions about the necklace so I called customer service. I was connected immediately and the gentlemen I spoke with was helpful. If you are considering purchasing pearl jewelry then you need to consider Augustina's.
