Why is it unique? "It's the new age charm bracelet because each bead has its own story behind it," said Neilly Holloway, a sales representative. "They were part of the gift baskets given away for the 2006 Golden Globe Awards." They have a lifetime warranty and every six months some of the beads are retired.
Price Range: Each bead ranges from $21-$58
