The chain is very unique looking (this is a GOOD thing)..The material of the chain is not shiny. I was expecting it to be as bright as the picture.  But I'm guessing this is how the titanium metal is..dull.  The chain is very light. This was a gift for the bf, but I would gladly keep the chain for myself since it does look nice.  If this is what you're looking for..go for it
