Everytime I wear this locket I get so many compliments on it and how different it is from regular lockets and how pretty it is. I love the fact that I don't have to undo the fastner everytime I want to wear this necklace as sometimes the clasps are so small and difficult to manage alone. This locket is just right for all occasions and I have worn it with everything from t-shirts to dresses. I was a little worried that it would be less than sturdy but no worries here as it has been worn so many times and is still in excellent condition. I would recomment this locket for anyone from kids to adults and in fact I ordered another for my favorite Aunt who has trouble with arthritis and can't work clasps on many jewelry products and being able to just slip it over her head will be only one of the things she will love about this locket. The engraving and locket are beautiful and with the holidays headed our way, it may just be the item I buy for all my girls. Love It ! ! !
