This is the only shop I trust for my beads. They may be a bit more expensive but not when you consider quality and how many beads you actually get. I can always trust that my beans are 100% natural or they will tell you in the listing if they aren't. They are always beautiful and smooth. I have orders tones of beads from them and never once been disappointed. Pay the little extra to know what your getting. They always come looking just like the pics. My go to shop for natural stone quality beads!!
