"Exquisite!!!"
This bracelet is beautiful. The detail is amazing. I purchased this for myself, but have also given Buanas pieces as gifts to friends. His work is exceptional, and his pieces are treasures.

"Stunning Statement Bracelet"
This treasure came in a lovely, padded batik box that I opened with excitement. The Moon Empress bracelet is good sized and beautiful, and I will wear her proudly. The stones are exactly as they appear in the photos--carnelians and citrines show up, but the others are so pale as to seem colorless, which is disappointing. The workmanship is very fine, and the artist very skilled indeed. Thank you! PS, it would be so helpful if you could provide some sort of scale when photographing your pieces. One really does not get a sense of their size, despite a measurement.
Best Uses
- Wear this when you want to feel beautiful

"Exquisitely beautiful"
This is an exquisitely beautiful piece, heirloom quality, and so unique! Much more detailed and finer quality than I expected. Easy to adjust. Picture does not do it justice. You can be sure I will be looking at the matching pieces.

"Beautiful"
A stunning piece of jewelry! The large moonstone has a beautiful sheen and beautiful hints of blue. The setting is very high-quality with a gorgeous detailed base. The ring is most comfortable and very eye-catching. I love it!

"Pretty"
These are very pretty earrings, but I had to return them because they were too heavy for my earlobes. If you have stronger earlobes than mine, these area great find.

"Beautiful but weak connection"
The piece is wonderfully carved and has what looks like a real gemstone but where it comes apart, the physics are not there for a tight closure.
