Defects: |
Indian beads are rarely perfectly formed and shaped, and these are no different. Some are a little smaller than 7mm and some are a little bigger, and a few are malformed. Also, a few have pits. When I notice defects, I remove the defective beads, but I don't always notice them (inspecting every bead isn't possible). Because of the defects, I set the price fairly low.

How photographed: |
At the window in natural daylight. |
Comments: |
Every once in a while I get Indian beads because they have a different quality from Czech beads. These beads are fairly plain, but I still like them. I purchased two lavender colors, and this one is the darker (the other is G2019). These beads have a slightly milky quality, whereas the G2019 beads are completely opaque.
