Very disappointed in this necklace. It may say sterling silver but it tarnishes very fast and very easily for a necklace. I wore it once, put it in my jewelry case and went to wear it a couple of weeks later and it was all brown and tarnished. I had to use silver dip to brighten it back up to silver. I have to do this every time I wear it. Waste of money. Won't buy from this company again.
