Price Per Lot: $2.30
Lots Available: 14
Style No. (bin): G2245 (awc+m)

Style: G2245
Beads per lot: 50
Cost per bead: 4.6 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 12mm (long) x 8mm (wide) x 4mm (thick) rectangles.
Colors/description: Translucent topaz (orange-yellow or golden yellow) (see Comments).
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: The picture revealed that quite a few beads have bubbles in the glass, and some beads are malformed.  I got these beads on sale, so my price of $2.50 is already low.  Nonetheless, I reduced the price a little further.  I should point out, however, that to the naked eye, the bubbles are not always visible, and you may use the beads with bubbles.  One good thing:  The holes running through the length of the beads are fairly neat, meaning that they aren't rough or "frosty" looking, a look I've always hated.
How photographed: Under two daylight-balanced lamps.  Note:  Using lamps leaves two bright spots on each bead, but that can't be helped.
Comments: My picture didn't capture the color of the beads quite right.  They are a little more golden-yellow than orange-yellow.  I tried fixing the color in my photo-editing program, but didn't get it exactly right.  (I should also point out, however, that the color of the beads will change slightly depending on the light source.)
