I bought this for my 9 year old daughter's birthday in the 14"  It is a little on the delicate side but very pretty and looks great with the the heart shaped locket my husband got her.  After receiving it I was not sure it was going to be big enough for her neck but it fits perfect, she is a small boned girl.  The twist in the neck lace is so nice and gives it sparkle.  The clasp is small, but putting it on someone else makes it a non-issue for us, make sure your child knows to ask for help in taking it off so she does not break it.  For the price you won't be disappointed.  I was looking for a 925 nickle free sterling silver, this fits the bill!
