I purchased this as a gift for my daughter, it’s an adorable design. But Purchased in May and the pearl surface wore off by July. Necklace is tarnished as well. I sent this back in August and I’m still waiting for a refund or replacement. I suggest if you buy this make sure you wear it for short periods of time and have zero lotion/sunscreen on your chest. I’m not sure if that was what contributed to the wearing of my daughters necklace.
