I applaud Mr. Krainer?s artistry and craftsmanship on this pendant. I have seen smaller, less detailed pendants for $180! Not only is the detail on the front gorgeous - the back has a beautiful filagree design that allows you to see the larimar there as well. Few artists demonstrate such care and detail on the back of a pendant! It is not too heavy and just the right size if you don?t want a huge pendant.
This was given to me as a birthday present. I chose this over the inferior and overpriced pendants in department stores because of the attention to detail and knowing that this purchase will help Mr. Krainer?s work. This certainly would make a great heirloom piece.
I was pleasantly surprised that the chain was included. The necklace will catch on loose weave sweater tops, but is perfect for summer items.
Perfect Mother's Day gift!
