Item no.:

G1312

Bead material:

glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

12mm flat rectangles with polished sides or "windows"

Colors/description:

These beads are a mixture of translucent orange, opaque orange and opaque yellow in generally random mixtures.

Defects:

I eliminate seriously defective beads before shipping.  However, some windows may be smaller than standard, and those beads are not eliminated.  I eliminate beads with cracks, deep or long scratches, partially polished windows, large pits, large spots of picasso coating on the windows, and large bubbles in the glass (if the glass is translucent).  However, I don't count very small pits, small nicks, very shallow scratches that are hard to see, or small spots of picasso coating on the windows as defects.  If the beads are translucent, I don't eliminate beads with rough or frosty-looking holes running through them.  Some beads may have gotten picasso coating inside the holes, making the holes look dark, and I don't count those as defective.  If you receive any beads with serious defects, that means that I overlooked them and you should contact me for a partial refund.

How photographed:

The picture was taken by the supplier.  However, because it isn't entirely accurate (see Comments below), I'll do my own picture soon.

Comments:

My picture, above, is inaccurate in a couple ways.  It is too dark.  Also, it doesn't show the sharp contrast between the orange and yellow glass.  In other words, if you enlarge the picture, you'll see what looks like various shades of orange.  In fact, the lighter areas are a bright yellow.  I don't know why the camera didn't pick up the colors accurately.
