Its still like brand new! Since it’s on your necklace you don’t need to be too careful about scratches.
I saw the diamond version as well and it’s def more blingy but I think the non-diamond version was enough for me, it sparkles on its own already with the cutting (the cutting was what attracted me in the first place) and also considering the price-point.
Thank you for replying! Couldn't find any review on this necklace. Will definitely try this in store!
