This is large enough to easily see but not too large. The rope-style makes it less shiny than having something that is flat.It is not heavy and doesn't include a chain which will be needed to wear it.Always good to show your Jewish pride.This is a very nice sturdy, gold charm. It is not that thin, and I put it on a charm bracelet that was given to me by my husband's great aunt. It represents the Jewish side of the family. It's a great piece, and would look lovely on a necklace or bracelet. I just need to get it soldered on.
