Item no.:

G1119

Bead material:

glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

6mm round (spherical)

Colors/description:

glass beads (probably white) with a brown speckled synthetic coating

Defects:

I don't know if this coating is fired onto the bead, and I don't know how durable it is.  The most comment defect with coated beads is that sometimes the coating has come off around one of the holes (although I didn't see any such defects when I was handling them).

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

Important:  The actual beads are a bit lighter and less intensely colored than the picture indicates.  I had trouble getting the picture right.  If you click on the picture above to see the full picture, that will give you a better idea of how the beads look.
