This is a gift that will make someone feel really special! Amazing packaging!!
I have never had anything that has had so much care put into the packaging to make something seem so special. I cannot say enough about how exciting this was to open, and that was while knowing what was inside! The box that came is a great, solid box that has an almost leather feel to it. I will be keeping this box for little keepsakes for sure. Then, if that box wasn't wonderful enough, there is the most beautiful and high-shined heart wooden box that has such a unique design that I dropped it because I was too excited. I am a grown woman who ordered this for myself, and I was still giddy beyond belief. The cards that came with it have a 3D optical effect when you pull them out of the box because of the intricate lace pattern cut into the cover. Even the polishing cloth was packaged up in its own little high-quality folded box. The certification card is a nice hard plastic that is brought to a high shine and comes with a certificate of authenticity. I don't think I have ever had anything so special that it came with a certificate for authentication. All this wonder came before I even opened the box to see the necklace. What a fun build-up to a beautiful piece of art. <br />The necklace is wonderful. There is a shine that I have never seen, even on brand-new necklaces. How this is achieved, I cannot say. The sparkle is perfect to really inspire joy in anyone. The gem is truly unique. I am not a really big fan of diamonds. I think they are rather plain-looking when you see the alternatives that are so colorful and show imagination. For a similar reason, I am not a fan of roses. I love different and unique things that the masses have not overly processed. So this is perfect for my taste because this gem has the ability to shine and sparkle with the color spectrum but remain pure simultaneously. The wrap around the pendant is wonderfully sculpted, reminiscent of two hearts that have merged into one. This may be like an ink blot and each person can see something different, but I love this. I am not a big jewelry person. I have never worn much outside of earrings on special occasions and my wedding ring, but this will be worn on any special occasion I can. It would be perfect for a wedding or a Tuesday, really anything special. The chain is a bit too thin for me, so I will look into getting a little thicker one so it will remain more secure, but that is a personal choice because I tend to forget I am wearing these and they tend to get pulled on. This is very unique and I cannot express how truly special the whole package can make someone feel.
