9mm Orange Swirl Flat Square Beads [50]
Beads per lot: |
50 |
Cost per bead: |
5.6 cents |
Bead material: |
Glass |
Country of origin: |
Czech Republic |
Size/shape: |
8.5mm (long) x 8.8mm (wide) x 3.5mm (thick) squares. |
Colors/description: |
Translucent light pink with yellow swirls, the combination of which makes the beads look orange. (Please see my comments below.) |
Hole size: |
1mm (estimated). |
Defects: |
About 20% of the beads (a rough estimate, since I didn't do an actual count) have pits or other anomalies, so I reduced the price by that much. (In other words, I would have priced the beads at $3.50 per lot if they had been perfect.) |
How photographed: |
At the window in natural daylight. |
Comments: |
My picture is not very good. My compact camera doesn't render reds, yellows and oranges very well. The yellow stripes are actually more pronounced, so the actual beads have more contrast in them (with brighter yellow stripes) than the picture shows. The actual beads are much more interesting.
Below is the supplier's picture to give you a different view. It also isn't a good picture, being too bright and saturated. |
