For some time I have been collecting Trollbeads. But just the slightly larger silver items are quite intense price - also because of the often elaborate design. So an attempt with this bead was started, especially since written reviewers that the bead slips out of the "normal" Pandora chains. The bead weighs 2.2g - 5g not as indicated by Amazon. And a length of 4 inches corresponds to 10.16 cm - because someone has missed a whole decimal point - or the packaging mitgerechne which consisted only of a foil bag with me. The bead is striking despite all simplicity, just between the glass beads of my bracelet. In addition, the Pandora beads of silver "more" shiny (color almost like rhodium) than that of Trollbeads, which have rather the "real" silver tone and activities in which creative properly with the patina. Precisely for this reason the falls Pandora Bead - but by no means negative. Apart from a knowledgeable collector or dealer no one would notice that it is "wrong" brand.
Whereby - Pandora is not wrong, just another manufacturer or designer than with Trollbeads. And that each system has its distinctive peculiarity belongs also so: the recognition is not to be underestimated. I find this bead can be also with beads from the competition (by that I mean not only Trollbeads) combine very well - and I'll buy certainly more Pandora beads for my Trollbeads bracelet. There are nice big Silverbeads with flowers, hearts ...
