Mandela from the store in Zanzibar Serena was amazing . He was so kind and educated me of the history , value , color and stone quality . Then he helped me find the perfect stone that fit into my bracelet . I would trust Mandela on pricing and everything and am
So happy I purchased my stone through him. We negotiated pricing for a few days and he kept me informed the entire time . I felt like I made a wonderful friend in the process .
