This necklace can go with both green, blue, and even purple outfits. I just wish it was either a little longer so that I could double it over my head for two loops, or a little shorter for a single loop.

This is a very cherished heirloom, sitting right next to our beloved Boxer girl’s ashes, who passed recently. A beautiful butterfly fluttered around her area after she passed, and we wanted to recognize her with this awesome sculpture! This IS a lovely piece!

I ordered two of these adorable little Amethyst banzai trees for gifts & both recipients loved them! They are even prettier in person. They were packed & gift wrapped very well too! You can arrange the branches to your liking. Thank you Joias do Rio!

This little tree is the perfect addition to a collection of cherished collectibles. The color is beautiful and very well made. Unlike other trees of this kind the wiring used to create branches enhance the tiny sculpture.

It's The Year of The Tiger and so what better gift to get my Mother who just so happens to be a Tiger (Chinese Horoscope). She loves the necklace and I finally convinced her that she doesn't have to "save" things to wear only for special occasions. She wore this necklace the very next day and she says it's comfortable and slips easily over her head.

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!!!

I love this tree! It was the perfect crystal tree since rose quartz is my lucky crystal for my tiger sign in the Chinese zodiac. I also put a slew of snow quartz crystals at the foot of the tree to make it seem like a crystal winter wonderland, and that has helped me feel the energies from this tree all the better.

colorful. Be aware chips are smaller than appear in photo. Good to combine with other strands.

I think these bracelets are beautiful but they are much more pale than the color in the picture.

Originally I had purchased one of these as a Christmas present for my friend. Before it arrived, I thought maybe the wires holding the stones wouldn't be that sturdy, but they were! I liked hers so much that I bought one for myself.

This butterfly is gorgeous!

This sculpture looks exactly as pictured. It was packaged well to avoid breaks. It looks very pretty on my dresser and I will cherish it for years to come. It is on the smaller side, a bit smaller than a 3x5 card, but it is still eye-catching. I now want to add the other pieces to my collection.
S
Shari
I gifted these bracelets to several of my relatives. They are beautiful, well constructed and much appreciated by the family who received them.
M

The stones in this piece are gorgeous. The necklace is quite long and has a very good weight to it. I just love it!
C
Christian
Both the butterfly and the base are gorgeous!
D
David
The necklace was very long- I knew it wasn't small but failed to calculate just how long! It comes down almost to my waist. Still, I love the flash of color. I might get a few more of these in different gemstones. Simple, yet unique!

Aquamarine is my mom's birth stone, so I got this and gave each of my sisters one at our monthly lunch. They love them! A lovely reminder of our mom's love. Thank you so much!

Amelia
Very delicate piece. Love the amethyst and the butterfly is beautiful!!!!!
J
Jo Ann
These stones a naturally beautiful. Their variation highlights the colors and brings attention to individual stones. The three bracelets are a nice touch allowing the wearer options. My personal preference is not to buy enhanced or laboratory stones when there is a wonderful alterative in nature.
A
Adina
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!
S
Sue
These bracelets were well worth the money and made a great gift!
K
Kathleen
Beautiful shiny necklace! I will keep this for sure. Very sturdy made too. Well worth the money I paid for. Love it. Purple is my favorite color.
L
Lise
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.
I
Indira
The Amethyst is a deep purple, has a nice weight, and is absolutely beautiful!
K
Karen
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.
C
Crucita
This necklace goes well with any piece of clothing. It is very beautiful and I use it very often I also have bracelets that match the necklace.
K
Kyle
Perfect, simple yet elegant necklace.
K
Kalyn
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.
M
Megan
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 .
G
Gladys
Stones smaller than I expected. Will not disappoint. Perfect for layering. Color blue is soft. Milky blue.
E
Elizabeth
This necklace is absolutely BREATHTAKING! It is so well made. The colors are so beautiful too. The shades of blue are quite calming. I adore it.
L
Lori
This fluorite strand feels cool and calming on my neck. The gentle blue and green colors are soothing and compliment many pieces of clothing.
K
Katherine
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. By that time I had tossed the packaging so I couldn't easily return it. I have purchased other items from this artisan which arrived just fine so I'm assuming this was a one time mailing issue.
P
Pamela
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!
C
Carol
This is a lovely necklace with many beautiful shades of aqua.
L
Louise Tremblay
Simple and pretty - just as pictured.
A
Anne
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.
P
Patricia
Purchased as a birthday gift for my new daughter-in-law. She loved it!!!
W
Wendy
I bought this to wear with tops in the beige-brown tones. It is just enough to add and length is perfect. Workman ship is excellent.
G
Gayle
I bought these for gifts for Christmas. They are beautiful and well made. I think my friends will like them. I loved getting the postcard from Rio from Mariana. A very nice addition!
G
Gladys
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.
L
Liberty
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.
C
Carleen H.
The color in the stones is amazing! One of my favorite bracelet to wear. I get a lot of complimens on it.
