All of our items are hand made to order in the USA, and usually take 3 to 5 business days, to assemble. Semi-precious stones and pearls are natural materials, and colors may vary slightly. (Rarely, items must be back-ordered.) If you would like a different stone color, or different length necklace, please contact us. Please let us know if you require your order by a special date, for example Birthday, Anniversary. (We will always do our best to expedite orders, if at all possible.) Thank you !
