Those who have complained that it is not a necklace, it never Claimed to be a necklace. (although you Could thread a chain around the pin I suppose)
It is a brooch, and a stunning one at that!!!
I got this to give as a gift and it will look great on coats, shawls, hats, lapels. Would also be nice as a gift corsage for special occasions (Mothers’ Day, Easter, Wedding).
