"Perfect gift!"
I bought this for a friend who was leaving Africa after 15 years of volunteer work there. She absolutely loved it. I did too! I almost didn't want to give it away, but the joy on her face when she received it told me I'd made the right decision. Besides, I was able to buy another one too. Love the beautiful bead work.

"Goes With Everything!"
This is my second Trang Belle purchase (I also have the matching bracelet). This necklace is so pretty and very comfortable to wear. It is lightweight so it can be worn in hot weather and you wont even know its there. You can dress it up or down, and with the kaleidoscope of colors, it goes with absolutely everything. I love it.

"Bold and bohemian"
This is a thick necklace, a statement piece, I think, that is beautifully made. I had doubts about the clasp before buying, but it seems to hold pretty securely. I wouldnt necessarily wear it to work as a professional piece, but for casual wear it works great!

"Gorgeous and comfortable"
The Wood Bead Necklace in Dark Brown, Dark Brown Dance is absolutely gorgeous! It is long enough and comfortable to wear, not heavy at all. A fun style with a natural look that calls the eye. I had to get the bracelet after to complete the set. Highly recommended!

"Nicely made"
My teens love knowing that their jewelry was made by an artist rather than a machine, and that helps them be more concerned and empathetic about other people in the world. A lesson in social justice AND a beautiful bracelet!
