    There are other reduced sets - the Crystal Teardrop set is nice...

  • I ordered the necklace for myself. If it is nice I will keep it for my boys to buy me for mothers day. They would be so chuffed to give me something like that.

    It's not real pearl is it? Does anyone have first hand experience of the quality and finish of shell pearls?

    I've been Money Tipped!
    I received mine this morning and have just called them to arrange collection. I am not pleased with it at all and see why it was in the sale. The beads are huge and cheap looking and the catch is fiddly and seems like it might also be insecure in use. My mum's fingers would certainly be too arthritic to struggle with this. Not worth £45 in my view, maybe £5 or £10 at most.

  • I didn't receive it - they replaced the necklace with an alternative - a dainty silver chain with black beads. Somehow it didn't match the chunky bracelet which, as other posters have pointed out, was never going to sell at the full price and needed to be massively reduced to tempt people.

    Mine've gone back.
