Review on 🌿 Boho Chic: Handmade Imperial Jasper Bracelet with Natural Stones and Crystal Hematite by Jim Cronin

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Big disappointment

WRONG WRONG WRONG! The center stone is NOT a stone. It appears to be made of pressed pulp with a rock design on top and bottom surrounded by a gold RIBBON instead of solder. You see the same surface in all three of my photos. Depending on how you tilt it, you may or may not see the color. Untypical Jasper, that's for sure. The one I received came in a very nice box. At first I was impressed. This was until I noticed that there was an imperfection at the top of the "stone". (It doesn't matter if it was a *real* stone or a mineral.) However, the surface of this *stone* looks like the surface is peeling off. The gold band surrounding the outside is sharp all around. He gets up. You can run your finger over it and hear how you feel. This band will not be beveled around the "stone". It's pulled up and torn in one place and sticks to everything. You can see it in my photos. In natural light, I could see that the "imperfection" was like a bubble that had burst and ripped off. To me, a "rock" is nothing more than an image on a hard surface, it had a bubble in it. Even though it's not paper, it feels as fake as it looks. It lacks weight and reflects light oddly. Just like a high quality metal Christmas gift box. unpolished stone. I collect jasper and have many types and varieties of jasper jewelry and stone carvings. The focus bead of this bracelet is definitely not "jasper". :/ It is returned. The rest of the packaging is very good. Even skin. But it still doesn't justify the price. Big disappointment for me.

Pros
  • Very nice. decent quality.
Cons
  • The strap was not real leather.
