50

Cost per bead:

7.2 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

3mm (thick) x 6mm (wide) rondelles with facets around the outer edge.  Rondelles are tire-shaped with the hold running through the center.

Translucent light pink with a light gold-luster coating.  All parts of the beads appear to be lustrous, but the pink/gold color appears to be heaviest on one side.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

I haven't noticed any defects, but fire-polished beads always have some imperfect facets.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

Important:  The gold-luster coating doesn't show very well in the picture.  When viewed in person, the coating is much more apparent, and it gives the beads a peachy quality (i.e., the gold mixes with the pink, and the result is a peach-pink appearance).  I have thought about re-doing the picture, but I think the new picture would come out about the same.  Luster coatings just don't show up well in my pictures.
