Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

8mm round (spherical).

Colors/description:

Glass beads (probably white) with a synthetic orange-red coating with dark speckles.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

I don't know if this coating is fired onto the bead, and I don't know how durable it is.  The most common defect with coated beads is that the coating may have come off around some of the holes, leaving a small white area around the hole.  I have seen that defect with these beads.

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

These beads look orange-red in daylight, but they can look much more orange in artificial light.
