4mm Copper-Colored Round Glass Pearls [118+]

Cost per bead:

3 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

4mm round (spherical).

Colors/description:

Glass beads (probably white) with a reddish-brown lustrous synthetic coating.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The coating on Czech pearls is fairly thin, and I don't know how durable it will be.  Also, inevitably a few pearls will be missing some coating around one of the holes (a common defect with Czech coated beads).  A few pearls may also have some anomalies in the coating, such as bumps, indentations or a bit of dirt.  I have written a special page about glass pearls and other coated beads; please click here to read it.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

Copper has many different shades, and these copper-colored beads are not as red and bright as other copper-colored beads I have carried.  The supplier calls them copper-colored, so I am using that designation also.
