Lovely bracelet but...you may need to clean it with toothpaste before you wear it.
This review is only to share information that can help others. It is not to discredit the Seller. The only reason I did not give the Seller 5 stars is due to the bracelet not suitable to wear straight from the package.<br /><br />First the workmanship: the bracelet arrive quickly in a lovely gift box. I was very impressed with the packaging. When I opened it, the bracelet was in a resealable plastic bag and came with a polishing cloth. The metal stamped message is exactly as I wanted and I am very happy with how looked and fit my wrist.<br /><br />What I immediately noticed was there was a fine oily film all over the bracelet especially on the inside surface. It left a dirty residue on my skin. I used the polishing cloth on the bracelet and it quickly become soiled. I immediately contacted the seller about this issue. She quickly got back to me and apologized with an explanation that my bracelet most likely missed the final cleaning. They have a new employee in training who accidentally missed this final process before it was bagged to ship. She suggested dish liquid would remove the oily film.<br /><br />The dish liquid did not remove the oily film however, toothpaste on a damp cloth completely cleaned the bracelet. The dark lettering is intact and the bracelet is in perfect condition. I feel certain had it not missed the cleaning process, this is exactly how it would have looked when I first opened the package.<br /><br />I offer this information only to enable anyone else (who's bracelet missed the final cleaning), to use toothpaste to remove the oily film. Your bracelet will be clean and ready to wear.
