6mm Black Picasso Matte Teardrop Beads [100]

Cost per bead:

5.2 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

6mm (end to end) teardrops with the hole through the narrow end.

Colors/description:

Black with a mottled gray and olive-green coating.  The coating is not heat-sealed to the bead, but my experience is that picasso coatings are durable.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The beads appear to be in good shape.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

I don't think that the matte finish enhances the black picasso coating finish very much, but the beads are nice enough.  My picture makes the beads look a little blue, but they aren't.
