I purchased this for myself and my grandmother.  Although it says  mother and daughter, I felt it still would work for us.  The chains are small. and they both turned black. with in a month. I was embarrassed giving this to my grandmother. The  Red Swarovski penants are still a pretty red and the silver connected to it that the  change goes through is still  bright in color.

I am thankful I didn't pay full price for this I would have really been upset.
