I bought this bracelet as a Christmas gift for my daughter. Within a few days, a stone had fallen out. It was replaced without any problem. I received the replacement on January 16 and by February 8 this one has also lost a stone!! It really is a beautiful unique bracelet but the stones need to be put in so they stay!! Sadly I am not wasting time to replace a broken bracelet for one that apparently will also break within days of receiving.
