Beads per lot:

50

Cost per bead:

8.6 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

5mm (long) x 6mm (wide) beads molded in a rosebud shape with facets around the outer edge.

Colors/description:

Translucent red with a silvery luster coating; I believe the coating has been fired onto the bead, so it should be durable.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The beads appear to be in good shape, though fire-polished beads always have some imperfect facets.  However, these beads are complex, so any imperfect facets won't be very noticeable.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

I also carry these beads in a larger size (usually).
