16mm (long) x 11mm (wide) x 5mm (thick) flat ovals with the hole running through the length.

Opaque satiny brown, black and white in subtle stripes.  The inner bead is black, and the brown and white are mixed into the black to form the stripes.

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

Since these are Premium beads, I am inspecting them individually and discarding the defective beads.  However, not all of the beads have exactly the same stripes.  Some beads have narrower or wider stripes, or more or less black or white in them.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

This color is sometimes called "tiger eye" by the Czech manufacturers.  I love the "tiger" colors.
