I purchased this necklace for my wife for a Summer gift. Route One always has some outstanding Maryland themed merchandise, and I wanted her to have something to wear to friends places when we got together to pick crabs. The flag itself is very nice, and when you look at it, is easy to discern is the Maryland flag. She had to ask my help though to get it on her neck. The clasp is so very tiny that it took several minutes just to get it open and connected. Besides that, a great product.
