I’m looking through all these terrific beans and love them layered (especially with diamonds!) but have just one question....how do you ladies keep them from becoming hopelessly tangled? I tried it once and it terrified me and took ages to unknot!

Even my single bean necklace has gotten badly tangled if I am not careful when storing it - it's a bigger problem for me with small pendants, but it does happen. I've tried jewelry hanging displays or hanging the necklace on a doorknob. Mostly I just store it in a blue pouch and hope for the best. I did once have to take a (different) necklace to a coworker's wife for help. She's a jeweler and was able to patiently unknot it for me.
 
That is beautiful! I was thinking about getting the 14mm. Seeing your bean in the 20mm size is now making me rethink which size is best!
Good luck with your choice. They are ALL beautiful. I’m “older” so I feel that I need something a little more “substantial” and less “delicate”. Have fun deciding!
(Not sure the 20mm is still available, at least in Canada where I am.)

I am 47 and feel that I need a little more substantial as well! Thank you so much for posting the picture! I need to get to a store and try them on! I think 18mm may be the largest size sold now.

How long have you had yours? It looks so shiny! Does it have the Tiffany stamp on the back? I thought I read that they don’t anymore?

Yes this one doesn’t have the Elsa Peretti stamp on the back. Just the clasp “thingy’s” are marked with the usual T&Co and Peretti Spain markings
