Comments:

These beads were a little disappointing to me when I got them.  The supplier's picture shows a light brown bead with a colorful iridescent coating, but the coating is not that colorful.  The coating has a gold tint, which I hadn't expected (and which doesn't show up well in the picture), and which looks good.  However, the coating isn't as shiny as other luster coatings I have seen.  Altogether I feel that the beads are a little blah, but if you like browns, you may disagree.
