Was really looking forward to receiving this piece, and it finally came, light weight and extremily attractive, love the links and the ties, I would have given it a 5 star, except I personally found that the strings are very stiff, and it was somewhat irritatiing on the neck. it just may-be that I have to wear it a couple of more times and the strings will get a bit more soft. Thanks Tori, you really have some great pieces, please keep making these beautiful and different peices for us at HSN.
