Item no.:

G769

Bead material:

glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

8mm flat ovals

Colors/description:

loose orange stripes in clear glass

Defects:

Flat oval beads often have cracks along the hole channels.  I examined several strands for cracks and didn't see any.  However, it is sometimes hard to tell if there is a crack because the hole channel itself can look like a crack.  If you find cracks, please let me know.

Comments:

(1) The clear glass in these beads has the slightest bit of a blue tint, so slight that you can't see it in the picture.  In fact, you may have trouble seeing the tint in person also!  (2) These beads are 8mm long and only about 6mm wide, so they aren't that large.
