Lots Available: 11
Style No. (bin): G2199 (cga~m)

Style: G2199
Beads per lot: 50
Cost per bead: 6.4 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 9mm (long) x 6mm (wide) teardrop-shaped beads with the hole running sideways through the narrow end.
Colors/description: Opaque bluish turquoise.
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: The beads appear to be in good shape, although the picture revealed one or two that had a pit.  I consider a 5% defect rate to be acceptable.
How photographed: Under two daylight-balanced lamps.  (Using lamps leaves two bright spots on each bead -- especially on round beads -- but that can't be helped.)
Comments: Turquoise comes in a bluish shade and a greenish shade.  I judge these to be bluish, but then there are gradations, and sometimes I'm not sure.
