I love this little necklace! My boyfriend bought me one last year with the letter V. It is very reasonably priced. And I have worn it a handful of times. It has NOT tarnished at all. The funny thing is, more expensive “high end” necklaces I’ve had, tarnished after only wearing once or twice. Even with proper care. But this lovely priced necklace, has not tarnished at all. Even after a year. It looks so cute with any outfit too. Don’t skip this necklace!
