When I got this necklace it was a little thinner than I thought it would be, but it was very lovely. The shine was brilliant and the clasp was so pretty. I gave it to my mom as a birthday present. The very FIRST time she tried to put it on the clasp snapped off so that it needs to be sautered back in place.***EDIT*** I contacted the seller and they fixed the necklace in a timely manner. Keeping fingers crossed that this one holds up.
