This bracelet arrives perfectly packaged for gifting. It comes in a velvet pouch with a pull string, and then it is set in a navy blue box on a cotton pad.

The bracelet has the nice weight that only real pearls can give, and they give the authentic gritty feel on your teeth when rubbed.

The bracelet, when laid on a ruler measures about 8" from clasp to extender. So this is a bracelet that will set snugly on your wrist and not move around a lot. I am uploading two pictures of the bracelet to this review, so be sure to check the photo section for an image of the bracelet length.

Also, the pearls appear to have some tool marks on them from drilling the holes for the weaving of the design. Again, I am uploading a close-up image to the photos so you can see what I am talking about. The tool marks appear to make a circle around the middle of each pearl, and are visible even at arm's length from you.

The "bronze" part of the description of this bracelet refers to the color of the thread used to weave the bracelet together. While this would be a terrific accent to a bronze outfit, especially because the color tone of the pearls on the bracelet is more cream than white, I don't understand it. I understand the choice not to use white thread, because that would absorb body oils over time and become discolored, but why not use a synthetic or sturdy clear cording instead? A clear cording would have made a lot more sense to me because the bronze weaving really limits the outfits I can use this with effectively.

I enjoy the weight and texture of the pearls, and the crafting of the weaving is truly well done. It is certainly a piece that will be eye-catching, and that I will enjoy wearing. However, I wish the cording was a more neutral color, and there were not manufacturing tool marks visible on the beads. With those two details changed, this would be a five star product.
