|
Bead material: |
Glass |
|
Country of origin: |
Czech Republic |
|
Size/shape: |
6mm snail shell-shaped beads. |
|
Colors/description: |
Glass beads (probably white) with a lustrous grayish-blue synthetic coating. |
|
Hole size: |
1mm (estimated). |
| Defects: | The coating on Czech pearls is fairly thin, and I don't know how durable it is. Also, inevitably a few pearls will be missing some coating around one of the holes (a common defect with Czech coated beads). A few pearls may also have some anomalies in the coating, such as bumps, indentations or a bit of dirt. |
| How photographed: | At the window in natural daylight. |
| Comments: |
The actual color of the beads is not as dark as the picture indicates; it is a little lighter, and also a little mor grayish. It's possible that what is pictured is an old batch, although I'm not entirely sure. I like this moody dark gray-blue. I've never gotten it in this shape before. The beads are sold in lots of 75 because they come strung that way. |
