Defects: |
I started to notice something wrong with the beads shortly after I started to handle them. Many of the beads seem to have a small frosty cloud towards one end of the bead. Frankly, I'm not sure what I'm seeing. I'm not sure if the cloudiness is in the glass, or if the holes are frosty and that is somehow being amplified by the shape of the bead. Curiously, the defect doesn't seem to be visible in the picture. However, I used a magnifying glass, and I am definitely seeing something wrong. So I lowered the price by one-third, and I increased the size of the lots to 25 to make them sell faster.

In the early days of my business, I carried these beads all the time, but in the 8mm size. They look really nice except for the defect mentioned above. |
