Metallic Beads

See Directions at bottom of page.

ITEMS ARE NOT PHOTOGRAPHED TO A UNIFORM SCALE
Important:  (1) For technical reasons too numerous to list, the colors of the actual beads may differ from the pictures. (2) Close-up pictures may show small defects which are not visible to the naked eye. (3) I use the measurements provided by the supplier; I don't always measure the beads myself. (4) Czech glass beads usually have holes in the range of ½mm to 1mm; holes in Indian beads are usually a little larger, but not always. (5) In order to get new beads on the site quickly, I sometimes use the supplier's picture.

hematite beads at the bottom, they are all made primarily of glass.
