6mm Amethyst/Copper Luster Cube Beads [50]

Style:  G1926
 
Beads per lot:  50

Cost per bead:  5.6 cents

Bead material:  Glass

Country of origin:  Czech Republic

Size/shape:  Cubes with rounded edges and corners, about 5.8 mm from side to side, and 7mm from corner to corner.

Colors/description:  Translucent medium-light amethyst purple with a reddish-bronze (i.e., copper-colored) luster coating.  The coating isn't very heavy.
 
Hole size:  1mm (estimated).

Defects:  The beads appear to be in good shape.

How photographed:  At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:  I used to call this color "amethyst gossamer", but I decided that wasn't descriptive enough.  The luster coating looks coppery to me, so that's what I'm calling it.
