Click to enlarge
Price Per Lot: $4.00
Lots Available: 11
Style No. (bin): G2298 (cgb+e)

Style: G2298
Beads per lot: 50
Cost per bead: 8 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 15mm (long) x 5mm (wide) x 4mm (thick) dagger-shaped beads with the hold running sideways through the narrow end.  Most beads are actually about 15.2mm or 15.3mm long.  The supplier advertises them as being 16mm long.
Colors/description: Opaque green or greenish turquoise.  The beads are so green that calling them "turquoise" is probably inaccurate, but that's what the supplier calls them.
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: Czech beads are always a sandwich of two halves, and with opaque beads they put translucent glass between the beads.  Consequently, all the beads have a dark-green stripe down the middle.  The stripe is more pronounced on some beads than others.
How photographed: At the window in natural daylight.
Comments: Be sure to read "Colors/description" and "Defects" above.  When I was beading, I never used dagger beads, so I don't say much about them.  However, I need to carry more colors.
