 Beautiful!Nov 24, 2009
By RN Mama
This is beautiful and at a price that is right. Let me say that I don't own any of the really expensive pandora beads, so I don't know how they stack up to them. But, with how nice these are, I don't know why I would want to shell out the big bucks for the pricey ones. :)

You can't go wrong...May 18, 2010
By Stephanie M
I have several of these beads..they are all in great condition and look beautiful on my bracelets. Good to know that you don't have to pay through the nose for a glass bead, the prices that people will charge for these things are just stupid. Yes, I know they aren't real Murano glass beads but so what? As long as they look nice and hold up well, that's all that matters..

 Deceptive name; read the description carefully.Dec 07, 2009
By E. Swope
This was not made in Murano. It was made in China. there is no comparison in the quality of the two products. for one thing, beads made in China are not kiln annealed, so they do not last and can shatter or break any time. That makes them pretty risky for putting on your wrist.
These are beads which are generally sold in bulk by the pound. Even at what seems to be a low price, they are very expensive for production line beads.
My real issue is the use or, rather abuse of the phrase "Murano style". This is completely misleading and abuse of the name of a town associated with artists for thousands of years. Murano is still a glass making island; in that most of the people who live there either make glass, make glass sculptures, chandalliers, jewelry or beads. It is one thing to sell cheaply made reproductions, but quite another to mislabel them so as to make people believe they are something they are not!
Glass beadDec 24, 2011

When i first recieved it it was very nice, after wearing it on my bracelet for a couple weeks the silver things on the side started turning a brass color and before i knew it im assuming the glue that holds the silver things on the side were falling off....I ended up just taking them off anyways since it looked weird with the brass. but other then that it still looks great on my braclet. you cant evn tell.
Love it!!!!Jul 16, 2011

This is a foil lampwork so it is very beautiful with the contrasts. It is one of my favorite beads.
