Item no.:

G1355

Bead material:

glass

Country of origin:

India

Size/shape:

Rondels with slightly large holes (about 1.5mm, though some of them are just 1mm); they are 3mm to 4mm thick and 6mm to 7mm wide.

Colors/description:

Black with a luster coating (the coating is more apparent in person).

Defects:

An occasional bead will be malformed or have a bubble on the surface.  Because the price is already very low, I decided not to lower it any further.  These are Indian beads, so they are not uniform from one to the next.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

These beads are in better shape than the white ones, which had a lot of malformations.
