| Country of origin: |
Not sure. |
| Size/shape: |
6mm cube shaped (when measured corner-to-corner, the beads are larger). |
| Colors/description: |
White ceramic beads with a dark-red surface (probably dyed). The surface of the beads is not shiny. |
| Hole size: |
1mm to 1.5mm (estimated). |
| Defects: |
Ceramic beads are never perfect. In this case, the red surface is lighter or darker on some beads. Also, it can appear mottled. In addition, I have noticed that not all beads are pefectly square. However, the consistency is pretty good considering that these are probably hand-made beads. |
| How photographed: |
Under two daylight-balanced lamps. The close-up shots may show defects that the human eye can't discern. |
| Comments: |
These beads are from my 1980's stash of beads, when I was making jewelry myself. They are at least 35 years old, and possibly older. My price of $3.00 for a lot of 50 isn't low (especially considering that I have no remembrance of what I paid for them), but I think that these are very good-quality rustic beads. They were a favorite of mine back in the 1980's. |

I probably got these from WEM, but I'm not sure. |
