4mm Garnet Red Cut-Crystal Bicone Beads [50]
Style: |
C072 |
Beads per lot: |
50 |
Cost per bead: |
7 cents |
Bead material: |
Glass |
Country of origin: |
Czech Republic |
Size/shape: | 3.9mm (long) x 4mm (wide) faceted bicones. Crystal bicones are like two pyramids joined at the base, with the hole running through the centers of the pyramids. Unlike molded bicones, which have 4 sides, cut-crystal bicones have 7 sides. |
Colors/description: |
Translucent dark red (I say "translucent" but you can't actually see through them because the color is so dark). |
Hole size: |
1mm (estimated). |
Defects: | The beads appear to be in good shape. |
How photographed: |
Under two daylight-balanced lamps. |
Comments: |
My picture is accurate. However, it shows a lot of white dots on the beads. I believe that those dots are light reflections from the two lamps. The beads themselves don't have any white spots. Unlike other 4mm Czech bicones, which are usually 3.5mm long and 4mm wide, these are almost 4mm long. |
