This is a really good example of this style of necklace. Very nice piece.
How much is this if it's for sale?

Hi, my e mail is info@singkiang.com I don't rent a car when I'm there so I see it's about 27 miles from San Francisco. I'll see if I can get a ride otherwise will be hard for me to come once I set up the show.
