|
Size/shape: |
15mm (from tip to tip) x 9mm (wide) crystal teardrops with the hole running sideways through the narrow end. These are Preciosa-brand cut-crystal beads, not fire-polished beads.
|
|
Colors/description: |
Translucent light amethyst purple with a silvery AB coating on part of each bead. AB coatings are not heat-sealed to the beads, and so they are not very durable (but this is also true of the AB coating on Swarovski beads).
|
|
Hole size: |
1mm (estimated). |
|
Defects: |
These are high-quality cut-crystal beads. Despite that, probaby every bead has a few small nicks at the edges of some facets. On the beads that have an AB coating sprayed on them (like these), the nicks are all the more visible. I am inspecting the beads individually, and I am eliminating beads that have larger nicks, but I am not eliminating beads that have very small nicks. If you are dissatisfied with the beads, please contact me.

Comments: |
These are leaded-glass beads, but they pose no hazard to anyone. The Czech version of amethyst purple is more plum-colored than real amethyst gems are.
