This bead is even more beautiful than the picture!  I've seen similar ones in expensive jewelry stores, but this one is amazing for a fraction of the retail cost.  I was skeptical about ordering online because I was afraid the bead wouldn't fit my Pandora bracelet.  It fits and looks great!  I'm ready to order my next order from The Metal Factory.  I will definitely be telling all of my friends and family!  Thank you for a super great product!
