6mm Milky Pink AB Round Beads [50]

Cost per bead:

6 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

6mm round (spherical).

Colors/description:

Milky or opalescent pink with a silver coating sprayed on part of each bead.  Such silver coatings are usually called AB (aurora borealis) coatings because they reflect a rainbow of colors, although this coating just appears to be silver.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The beads appear to be in good shape.  The picture reveals a seam around the middle of each bead, but I doubt it can be seen with the eyes unless you look very closely.  Also, the AB coating isn't the best I have seen.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

As stated in Defects above, the beads aren't the very best quality that I have seen, but they are nice enough.
