    Great Quality and worth the price
    I love my necklace as an the monogram is perfect but I'm giving it 4 stars because I've only worn it 3 times and the clasp does not close tight so each time I put it on I attach it in the mirror but this past week I noticed it was missing just an hour after I'd put it on and luckily I found it on the rug in front of my kitchen sink the next evening. I was so happy I'd found it that I wanted to wear it so I went into the bathroom to mack sure the clasp was shut tight and within 20 minutes it was missing again. I retraced my steps in my house for 30 minutes and can't find it so if you purchase one be sure the clasp is working, otherwise you may want to replace it. So sad and hope I find mine because it's so tiny and cute that I truly do like it.

    Amazing product
    I got the engraved paw print necklace with my dogs name and it is great. My dog died a few days ago and I bought this to have him close to me and I am very happy with the size, chain length, adjustability, and the customization options. I got an alert less than 24 hours after my purchase saying it was shipped which I really appreciate how fast they got it customized and in the mail. It feels like great quality and I was shipped an added pair of metal stud earrings as an extra bonus. Because of that I knew I wanted to leave them a five star review. Thank you!
