Troubleshooting
Clasp is difficult to open or close
Gently try to wiggle the clasp. If it remains stiff, inspect for any debris or minor bending and carefully adjust with appropriate tools if comfortable, or consult a jeweler.
Chain appears tarnished
Gently polish the chain with a soft jewelry polishing cloth. Avoid using chemical cleaners which can damage the plating.
Necklace feels lighter than expected

Contact the manufacturer or a qualified jeweler for repair. Attempting to re-glue crystals without proper tools can cause further damage.
