I have bought at least three bracelets from Aurum Brothers. When I got them, they were quite impressive. After only a few months of wear (on all three), the elastic band broke and the beads went everywhere. Lost them because I was outside. I followed the care instructions to a “T”, but they still broke. When I ordered my third bracelet (clearly I’m a slow learner), I mentioned how the other bracelets had broken and I wanted to get a bracelet that was more secure. No response, they just shipped the bracelet with the same elastic base and it broke as well after a few months. For $200 per bracelet, this is low quality materials. Buyer beware!
