| Beads per lot: |
25 |
| Cost per bead: |
12 cents |
| Bead material: |
Glass |
| Country of origin: |
Czech Republic |
| Size/shape: |
10mm (wide) x 4.5mm (thick) puffy flat round beads ("puffy" meaning that the edges are round instead of square like a coin would be). The sides aren't actually flat, but rounded. I think that "tablet" describes the shape pretty well. |
| Colors/description: |
Clear beads with a cloud of brown in each bead. |
| Hole size: |
1mm (estimated). |
| Defects: |
The clouds of brown are not consistent from one bead to the next. Some beads are mostly brown, and some are mostly clear, with many gradations in between. |
| How photographed: |
At the window in natural daylight. |
| Comments: |
I've always liked clear beads with a cloud of color in them. I used to call such beads "givre" beads (a word used by Swarovski for clear beads with a cloud of white in them), but I am abandoning that name because it isn't accurate. These beads are pretty nice. These beads are pricier than I think they should be, but I got them from one of my more expensive suppliers. I can't find them anywhere else. |
