Ceramic or pottery beads with a mottled dark-blue and white glaze that looks a little like denim. |
|
Hole size: |
2mm (estimated). |
| Defects: |
The beads are not perfectly shaped because they are hand-made. Since these are premium beads, I am inspecting them individually. However, being hand-made, there may be some small defects that I allow to pass through. The beads have a rustic appearance, so minor defects should not be a problem. |
| How photographed: | At the window in natural daylight. |
| Comments: |
The size of the beads can vary somewhat. These beads are enormous and heavy, heavy enough that they will distort the shape of a necklace if you combine them with significantly lighter beads. Also, they may be too heavy to make into earrings. They are very nice beads, but I wasn't thinking when I ordered them. |
