it is actually quite beautiful [SEP] this is actually a stunning piece however as other customers have commented the hematite is soft one of my pieces is cracked already i still like the bracelet and would pay double if a stronger material truly its not the sellers fault hematite is not a strong stone naturally i had a ring and it broke shortly after purchase and it cost more than this bracelet the stone needs reinforcement when set in jewelry so its certainly priced low and adorable it will however not last long as for the instead of stars
