[QUOTE="quirkygirl, post: 7231119, member: 106"]Nice necklace! It's yours now and you can do what you want with it. That being said, I echo what AJ, KSW, and Kyra have already stated. Keep in mind that these box clasps often come loose from being pressed over time, and on a bracelet, it would also stand a chance of accidently being hit or pressed ... causing it to come open. It should have a safety catch or chain of some sort if you plan on wearing it often (in my opinion).
