It is tara pearls brand. Pearl Dreams saw it-it's a non returnable necklace, and not because it's a scam-because it's the type of site that sells it at "liquidation" prices. saks fifth use to have it at retail of ~6k. The price point seems reasonable at 1800ish but I agree, these things look different in person. I have been to some of these sites you all recommended, but they don't seem to have a strand as round as this, with those sizes at that price point. most I have seen list necklaces like that at 3000-5000. Customer service told me that this is a pic of the exact necklace you receive. My wife currently has a near round to baroque-ish peacock strand that's 8-10 mm. I was looking for something bigger and round-around 11-13 mm. I'm not against a beautiful peacock with blues and greens, but am just stuck and don't want to get ripped off.
Either way, just went to pull the link on gilt.com-it sold... Someone here buy it???
