Price Per Lot: $3.20
Lots Available: 15
Style No. (bin): F664 (bna~b)

Style no.: F664
Beads per lot: 50
Cost per bead: 6.4 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 3mm (thick) x 5mm (wide) faceted rondelles.  Rondelles are beads which are wider than they are long -- in other words, tire-shaped.
Colors/description: Clear glass with a purple coating on part of each bead (the coating is not synthetic).  I also see a hint of copper on the beads, so perhaps there is an additional copper coating (but if so, it is very light).
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: All fire-polished beads have some imperfect facets.
How photographed: Under two daylight-balanced lamps.  Note:  Using lamps leaves two bright spots on each bead -- especially on round beads -- but that can't be helped.  The close-up shot may show defects that the human eye can't discern.
Comments: These are pretty beads, but please note that all my pictures are close-ups and show more detail than you'll see with your eyes.  I have noticed about that they look better in daylight than under artificial light, which makes them look a little dull.
