Ordering this item will include the pendant section of the pictured item only, not the attached necklace. Its up to you what chain or chord you want to put it on. Also, there may be granules left over from the production process within the crevices that need to be excavated out. When ordering anything from my shop here at shapeways, know that the item is produced and shipped by shapeways, not me personally and any customer service and or product questions should be directed towards them. I do offer this item full polished and assembled with jump rings soldered onto a chain. If you wish to have me complete this item into a ready to wear necklace, please contact me at my etsy site. www.jamiespinello.etsy.com
