Comments about "ILLEGITIMI NON CARBORUNDUM" NECKLACE:

I gave it to a friend of mine who was in hard times regarding social situations. She cried. I don't think I could have received a better reaction. Great gift, really beautiful, the weight of the pewter around your neck is a wonderful way to remind you that its still there and to keep your chin up.

Comments about "ILLEGITIMI NON CARBORUNDUM" NECKLACE:

LOVE this necklace - it's a strong statement. The gear is nice and large - it might be too much for the weak at heart! It is a bit heavy, but the perfect length - and the chain quality is beautiful and versatile. If you're a strong person and the kind of person that likes unique jewelry that says something about who you are - this is your necklace. Good price as well.

Comments about "ILLEGITIMI NON CARBORUNDUM" NECKLACE:

The pendant itself is exactly the same as the one sold as a keychain. But for $28 more, you get the tiniest, tackiest, thinnest necklace imaginable. Pay the [$] for the keychain and buy yourself the necklace of your own choosing. This was horribly disappointing and does not speak well for Uncommon Goods.
