Item no.:

G1076

Bead material:

glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

7mm x 8mm snail-shell shaped

Colors/description:

Glass beads (probably white) with a synthetic coating of mixed colors:  mostly purple with fuchsia and navy blue streaks

Defects:

A common defect of coated beads is that some beads will be missing a small amount of coating around the holes.  A high percentage of these beads seem to have that defect.  However, since the "bare" area can usually be covered by a spacer bead, most of those beads will be usable, so I haven't reduced the price.  If you disagree, please contact me and I'll give you a partial refund.  Also, an occasional bead has a bubble or white spot in the coating.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

These beads are completely wild, and my picture doesn't do them justice (because of the excessive light reflections).  They are more intensely purple than the picture indicates.
