From the #1 international bestselling author of The Etymologicon and The Horologicon comes an education in the art of articulation, from the King James Bible to Katy Perry...From classic poetry to pop lyrics, from Charles Dickens to Dolly Parton, even from Jesus to James Bond, Mark Forsyth explains the secrets that make a phrase--such as "O Captain My Captain " or "To be or not to be"--memorable. In his inimitably entertaining and wonderfully witty style, he takes apart famous phrases and shows how you too can write like Shakespeare or quip like Oscar Wilde. Whether you're aiming to achieve literary immortality or just hoping to deliver the perfect one-liner, The Elements of Eloquence proves that you don't need to have anything important to say--you simply need to say it well. In an age unhealthily obsessed with the power of substance, this is a book that highlights the importance of style.

Great for daughter or friend!
Color: E, Color: E
This is absolutely perfect for a daughter for Valentine’s Day or a gift just to give. The initial is in a gold with a gold chain and a precious pink heart. Easy to use gold clasp to put it on or off. The chain seems pretty regular like most chains, but seems durable enough to wear everyday. It hasn’t tarnished or turned any necks green so it’s skin safe I would say. Wouldn’t recommend showering with it, but it has stayed gold with no tarnish. It is simple and cute for a friend, daughter, even a mom.

Great for my 8 year old daughter. Dainty and elegant
Color: K, Color: K
This necklace is perfect for my 8 year old daughter. She loves dressing up her clothes with fun necklaces and this one is so elegant and pretty.
The chain is very thin so be mindful of that. It could definitely easily break if not taken care of. I do like that it has an adjustable clasp so I can shorten it to where she likes it. The chain is actually a good length so there is room to grow.
It is plated so definitely not recommended to wear in water of any kind as it will eventually turn. For the price it’s a good little necklace for younger girls and having their initial on it will be something special for them.
The box it comes in is sweet and has a really motivational saying in it.

Must have
This initial necklace is adorable. The gold tone is pretty and shiny without looking cheap, and the pink heart adds the perfect little pop of color. It feels lightweight but well made, and the clasp is easy to use while still feeling secure. I bought it for my daughter and it’s the perfect everyday necklace cute, simple, and special without being over the top. It’s held up well so far with no discoloration, and it looks great layered or worn alone. Such a great little personalized piece.

Beautiful necklace!
I got this beautiful necklace with my daughter’s initial and I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived.
It is a 18K gold plated chain and pendant, it looks high quality, and it is very light. My toddler loves the little pink heart, it’s quite the dainty detail!
It makes for a beautiful present for your daughter, niece, friend, or loved one.
The price is amazing, too! Go grab one or 5!

Good product
Size: 2.5", Style: Closed Hooks
Strong magnets that stay on wall once applied. Definitely holds the weight that it says it holds on the product. Good size to hold my halters in my barn. Would buy again and I think the price was a little high for this product, but it was worth the purchase.
