| Beads per lot: | 3 |

| Size/shape: |
18mm (long) x 12mm (wide) x 5mm (thick) rectangles with a swirly pattern embossed into each side; the sides are hand-polished. |
| Colors/description: |
Bright opaque green, with many beads having areas that are clear glass. I'm calling it "avocado green", but it may be brighter than that. |
| Hole size: | 1mm (estimated). |
| Defects: |
I eliminate seriously defective beads before shipping. However, in the case of these patterned rectangles, there are some small defects that I consider acceptable. An occasional bead may have a ridge where the seam in the mold was (where the molten glass protruded slightly). Some beads may have a small indentation at the corner. Some beads have one or both sides that were polished so strenuously that the pattern was removed. Despite their high prices, these are rustic beads, and I can't eliminate every bead with a small defect. Important: After working with these for a while, I noticed that many of the beads have areas of clear glass. So many of the beads have areas of clear glass that I can't consider it to be a defect, and I can't eliminate all those beads. |

| Comments: |
It was several years ago that I started carrying the patterned rectangles. I ordered them twice, but for some reason I never posted these. |
