6mm Brown Marble Coated Round Beads [75] (see Comments)

Beads per lot:

75

Cost per bead:

6 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

6mm round (spherical).

Colors/description:

Glass beads (probably white) with a brown synthetic coating with swirls of black coming up from one end.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The coating on synthetically coated Czech beads tends to be thin, and I don't know how durable it is.  Some beads may be missing a small amount of coating around one hole.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

These coated beads are a little unusual.  Each one has a pool of black at one end (surrounding one of the holes) which is the source of the black swirls.  I don't know how they make them.

I am selling them in lots of 75 because they come strung that way.

IMPORTANT:  The batch of these beads shown in the picture is the first batch.  The new batch is more of a yellowish brown.
