Have worn the necklace for a little while, and have not taken it off. While it is definitely 'tinytinygold,' it is very nice! It is of wonderful quality (having bad reactions to most metals). There is NO issue here, and the necklace is very sparkly. Also, very pleased with the clasp, as I was worried it would be difficult to put on and take off if it were too small. The seller was great with communication and answering any questions. The shipping was very fast as well. I recommend this shop and look forward to returning. Thank you!
