Lots Available: 40
Style No. (bin): G2256 (ckas+e)

Style no.: G2256
Beads per lot: 50
Cost per bead: 6 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 6mm round (spherical).
Colors/description: Opaque olive-green beads with a multi-colored mottled picasso coating (which contains dark brown, lime green and grayish blue, among other colors).
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: The beads appear in good shape.
How photographed: Under two daylight-balanced lamps.  Note:  Using lamps leaves two bright spots on each bead -- especially on round beads -- but that can't be helped.
Comments: These are wonderful beads when you look at them close-up.  The problem is that when you look at them from a distance, all the wonderful colors meld together and the beads just look dark green.  Some beads appear to have a dark-brown picasso coating, while others have a silver-oxide picasso coating.  Silver-oxide is the original and best-quality picasso coating, and I am happy to see that they are still using it (because it has real silver in it, it is expensive).  If all picasso beads came with a silver-oxide coating, I'd be ecstatic.  (If the coating on these beads isn't silver-oxide, then they have done a good approximation of it.)
