Size/shape: 6mm (thick) x 9mm (wide) faceted rondelles.  Rondelles are round beads which are wider than they are long.  This shape is generally referred to as "gemstone".
Colors/description: Turquoise (i.e., opaque greenish-aqua) with a brown mottled "Picasso" coating.  The coating makes the beads look somewhat green.  The beads that have a heavy coating look more green, and the beads that have a light coating look more aqua.
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: I haven't noticed any significant defects.  However, fire-polished beads always have some imperfect facets.
How photographed: At the window in natural daylight.
Comments: I have carried 6x9mm turquoise picasso beads before, but they were sufficiently different that I am assigning these beads a new number.  The ones that I carried most recently had a more colorful coating, whereas the coating on these beads is just brown.  However, these beads are much less expensive.
