Oval Cut Cubic Zirconia Birthstone Bracelet in Sterling Silver

The emerald bracelet I received looks like the pictures from the seller. The green stones are quite lovely with a nice green color and a lot of sparkle. The cubic zirconia accents are tiny, and their sparkle probably won't be noticeable except in bright sunlight. It seems sturdily made with solid-looking links. Any gaps there were in the extender chain and the jump rings were soldered shut. The lobster-claw clasp is attracted to a magnet but the rest of the metal doesn't seem to be. (Silver is not magnetic.) The box I received is different from what is pictured and looks much cheaper. It's just black paperboard with a foam insert that has velvety black fabric on top and a hook and a black rubber band to hold the bracelet in place. I included a picture of it draped over my wrist in case it's helpful to see it against skin, but my wrist is very small (5 3/8" circumference) and this bracelet is too big for me. It's not for me though - it's a gift for a friend.One concern I do have is in the way the gemstones are described as "created" and "synthetic." Under FTC guidelines (which Amazon sellers are supposed to follow) these descriptors only apply to man-made gems with the same optical, physical, and chemical properties as natural gems. They are real gemstones but not natural ones. Currently (May 2019) the Tanzanite Foundation and every article I've seen indicate that synthetic/created tanzanite has not yet been successfully made by anyone, so the "created tanzanite" is almost certainly a simulant/imitation. And all the birthstone gems listed are described in the same way, as "created" and "synthetic," so perhaps they are all imitations. I'm not particularly bothered by them being imitations at this price, but I'd prefer an accurate description. Also, if I am aware of what the actual material is, it is helpful in taking care of it. I wrote a question about this in the "Have a question? " box for clarification, but there is no reply so far.
