Glass

Czech Republic

Colors/description:
Glass beads (probably white) with a lustrous, slightly metallic, medium-light olive-green synthetic coating.
Hole size:
1mm (estimated).
Defects: The coating on Czech pearls is fairly thin, and I don't know how durable it is.  Also, inevitably a few pearls will be missing some coating around one of the holes (a common defect with Czech coated beads).  A few pearls may also have some anomalies in the coating, such as bumps, indentations or a bit of dirt.
How photographed: At the window in natural daylight.
Comments: IMPORTANT:  These beads have changed color since I purchased them.  They have gone from being a light olive green to being a more intense, yet still light, olive green.  Their color is more yellow than it was before, which makes them look more olive.  Curiously, I like this color better then the original.  But since I don't know if the beads will continue to change color, I have lowered the price substantially.  The picture shows the original color.  Please note that when I realized that my glass pearls were fading in 2013, I stopped purchasing them.

Original comments:  At the time that I am posting these beads, I have two other 6mm olive green pearls on the site, one which is less yellowish than these, and one which is slightly translucent and less metallic-looking.  The price of these pearls is high because I got them from my most expensive supplier of pearls.  That supplier has increased its prices almost 100% since I first started buying from them.
