Czech Republic

Size/shape:

8mm round, faceted

Defects:

I haven't noticed any defects, but note that fire-polished beads always have some imperfect facets.  Not all beads have the same amount of blue in them, but I don't count that as a defect.  However, a small percentage of beads have no blue in them at all.  Those beads can simply be used as green beads.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

I have carried blue/green givre beads before, but usually the blue is on the outside.  This time the blue is on the inside.
