No. It is brass with a 24K gold plating, not solid gold. The gold layer is thin and will wear off with friction, sweat and perfume.

For a fashion chain, yes, if you want a light gold-tone layer without spending much. It was $12.24 on November 1, so waiting for a dip below $15 saves a few dollars.

Will it turn my skin green?

It is nickel free, which reduces irritation, but the brass core can still leave a green mark when the plating wears and the metal reacts with sweat. Wiping it after wear helps.

What length is it and can I adjust it?

It is 18 inches with a spring ring clasp and no extender. That length sits at the collarbone on most adults.

Can I shower or swim in it?

Better not. Water, chlorine and soap speed up plating wear and tarnish on brass. Wipe it clean and store it dry.

What comes in the box?

The necklace only. No pouch, polishing cloth or gift box is listed.
