Unique piece when you just need a simple necklace for work or an event. I got great use out of this necklace when I wasn't sure if I would be over-dressed or under-dressed. This necklace always hit the right note. The wire band is flexibale but strong. The black bead has been reinforced on the wire to secure it won't come off. Simple necklace that I think was purchased at a boutique. No tag or name. Still has some life in it.
