Review on ๐Ÿ’Ž Sparkle with Colle Crystal Beads: 400 Healing Natural Gemstones Set for Jewelry Making Supplies by Casey Narcisse

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent quality for price

For the price of this bead set, the value is decent. I wasn't sure whether to expect the stones listed in the item description, the questions section, or the labelled photograph. Overall, it ended up being a mix of the three. For example, my order did not contain Pink Pine- instead it is a completely different stone that I cannot identify and the Green Agate beads look more like glass than agate when you see it in person (although it looks consistent with the photo), and the Indian Agate appears to actually be Persian Gulf Agate (by my best guess) and the revain stone is actually revainite. The beads were slightly mixed when they arrived, probably as a result of jostling during shipping, and the beads were filled in no particular order, so it took a little bit to figure out which stone was which among those that are similar colors. Each bead "cubicle" was filled just under halfway, except for Garnet and Red Coral which was filled maybe 1/4 full, but those beads were also smaller than some of the other beads.I do like that the case seems fairly sturdy and has a double plastic clasp. If I shake the kit while closed, smaller beads may shift from one "cubicle" to another, but for the most part they seem to stay in place. Also, the product shipped and was delivered quickly.Again, all in all it was decent quality for the price. I haven't found many bead varieties like this for this price, and would certainly have paid more in a craft store for a strand of each stone type. So it seems like a pretty good starter kit for someone looking to expand their stone bead collection for a low price.
