When I first received this bracelet, I was delighted with how white and lustrous the pearls were.  Then I put it along side a pearl necklace I already had and was struck with how much nicer the bracelet was in comparison.  I guess I hadn't thought about the difference in the quality of pearls before then, but it's really worth it to get pearls like this that are so shiny and without blemishes.  It's a perfect size for my wrist, both in length and the size of the pearls, and I love looking at it.  I also bought pearl earrings from this seller and have been pleased with both purchases.
