To use this necklace, simply put it around your neck and fasten the clasp. It looks great with open - necked tops, like off - the - shoulder blouses or V - neck dresses, to show off the beautiful charms. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from water, lotions, and perfumes as these can damage the gold plating and the stones. After wearing, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. Store it in a jewelry box or a soft pouch to prevent scratches and tangles.
