I have bought two butterfly sculptures and I treasure them a lot. The butterflies just warm my heart and make my day so much brighter. Wonderfully made!

The only reason I don't give 5 stars is that I am not excited by the item once I see it. This may be me, because it does look exactly as pictured, though I wish more shiny. Another reviewer said "milky," good word. Three separate strands, so you can wear together or 1 or 2, or give three gifts to others! Excellent value. They fit snugly over my smallish hands and wrist, not for large bodies.

The several colors make this a perfect choice for me. I can wear it with so many things. I get compliments on it all the time. Worn it to work & with casual clothes. The beads, or chips, are petite (more than I gleaned from the pictures online), which makes it visually interesting, without being chunky or overpowering. That makes it a surprisingly good choice to wear at the office.

These are so pretty and a good value but my only concern is they stick to glasses/cups when they start to get wet. I've had this problem with other coasters so I guess it might be common. I still like them a lot but gotta be careful I don't pick one up with my drink while lifting it.

Maybe my head is too bi, but I can't wrap this necklace twice around my head. For a single strand it's a bit long, but it's still a quality item .

I'm assuming that the item was damaged during shipping. When I tried it on multiple fluorite chips ended up on the floor. The necklace still seemed to be salvageable after removing the broken stones but when I went to wear it I found additional broken stones.

This necklace is a very nice length and the color is lovely. I was afraid the stones would be rough, but they are very smooth and easy to wear. The necklace has a nice weight to it so it hangs beautifully without being bulky. A great wardrobe addition!

Giving it to my sister for her birthday - aquamarine is her birthstone. I'm sure this is the first example of rough stones she will have, but I know she'll like it.

They are very pretty and delicate. I was hoping for larger stones but aqua stones are pricey. I have a large hand so sliding the bracelets over and thru use a lot of care. Snug fit for 7 plus size wrist. Girls with small wrists are in luck with this find.

I really love this necklace.The beads are a very deep purple amethyst. I gave it four stars because I wish it had a clasp so that I might wear pendants with it. It is beautiful on its own and would be exquisite with a pendant . Very pleased with this purchase.

Today, I received my precious ”Sunny” gemstone tree. It was prettily packaged and gift-wrapped. Needless to say, I knew immediately that the item itself would be very precious given the way it was wrapped, and I was not mistaken. The citrine and amethyst tree is gorgeous, and I'm excited to be able to attract more positivity into our lives. The artist also included a nicely written postcard from Brazil. Thank you so much!!!
