Okay, so I got this musical note necklace as a gift for my bestie who's a total music nerd. First impression? The packaging was cute—not luxury level but decent for the price.

The chain feels sturdy, and the treble clef pendant has this nice weight to it. I went for the gold-plated one, and it hasn’t tarnished after weeks of wear (shower test failed though—don’t be like me).

BUT here’s the tea ☕: The black gunmetal version looks way cooler in person than in photos. My friend literally gasped when she opened it. The musical details are crisp, though one note (pun intended)—it’s slightly bigger than expected.

Pro tip: Comes with a lil polishing cloth which is clutch for fingerprint smudges. Would totally rebuy for other music-loving friends!
