Size/shape:

10mm (deep) x 12mm (wide) flowers with three "petals"that have grooves on the side.

A rich blue mixed with raspberry or cranberry red (or perhaps it's fuchsia).  The two colors mixed together to create purple.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The beads appear to be in good shape, although 3-petal flowers always have a little roughness in the middle of the flower.  (If you are stringing the beads so that the middle can be seen, consider putting a pearl in the middle of the flower -- it will look good and hide any roughness.)

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

Please note that when I posted these beads before, I posted them with the description for a completely different bead.  No one complained then, so I guess it wasn't a problem.

These beads have some of the richest colors I have ever seen.  They are absolutely stunning.  The raspberry color mixes with the blue to make a lovely purple.  About the price:  I have what must be the craftiest supplier in all the world.  When they want to raise a price, they will sometimes remove the item from their site for an extended period, and then re-post it with a higher price, hoping that no one will notice.  Well, I did notice, and I had to raise my price because the supplier's price went up.  Nonetheless, these are premium-quality beads, and I think they are worth it.
