I talked to my jeweler about this last month. This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

I talked to my jeweler about this last month. I bought mine from Pandora for about $8,000. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.

Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.

Good thinking asking this before buying. A friend of mine got hers from Etsy and loves it. This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.

Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.
