Don't Let it Drop to hard
Dispite my toy breaking which is completely my fault, I highly recommend the entire set to everyone with glass or metal toys. Even if you have electronics that tend to fall alot due to kids, pets or even just plain clumsyness.

Pros
Price, padding, does what it says, and can store different things other than toys.
Cons
Can't be dropped hard on concrete.
These cute little bags come in three sizes small, medium, and large sizes; they're all made by Don Wands.
I was surprised when the yummy mail man had me sign for the package that the bag came in that was the first time ever of having to sign for something from Eden. I'm using the Eden pictures now because I didn't think that my toy would break but it did. I immediately put my pink Amethyst in the pouch which was my first and only glass toy into the pouch and it fit perfectly.
I did the drop test twice in the kitchen and upon inspection the toy was fine I should have left it at that but I just had to do it one more time but on concrete instead of leaving it alone. The last time this pouch was dropped with my Amethyst, the toy was completely shattered. It not only broke up in huge chunks and shards, but tiny slivers as well some glass dust particles.
So you need to make sure that if the pouch does fall with a precious toy that it is on a stand or something where it doesn't have far to drop. Even at 5" falling on carpet will be fine for the toy but not on anything hard. If yours like mine ever breaks all you need to do to get the glass bits and pieces out, once the big pieces have been dumped out of the pouch, is to turn it inside out like a sock. Using some duct tape firmly on the material, lift up and toss. If any pieces were left, the tape just took it.
The pouch measures: 8 1/2" long and 5" wide, and I'd say the padding is about 1/2" thick all around, the Amethyst was 7 1/4" long and 4" thick, as I said before it fit perfectly, and still had some room in the pouch. Now the tag inside says that it's 100% polyester, and that it's to be hand washed in cold water and hang to dry. The top closure is a nylon draw string with a plastic button that you press down to open the pouch, you can just pull the tap to and it'll open. Mine came with a tiny burn in the toy of my pouch, barely even noticeable unless you are really looking for it.

Follow-up commentary
3 months after original review
I have bought several of all 3 pouches not only for my glass toys, but also electronics such as my cameras and so on. Even though the toy broke on the test, this is still a great pouch and is a great gift idea for anyone.
