Comments:

These beads have a lot of character, and I really like them.  The picasso mottling and the light gold-luster coating add a dimension to what would otherwise be ordinary beads.  Even though five years have passed since I last posted them, I have not raised the price.  (The supplier stopped carrying them for years, and then started carrying them again.  I would think that that meant that they found more of them in their warehouse, but the new beads are strung differently.  It is very unusual for an unique bead like this to be made more than once.)
