4x10mm Topaz Matte Flower Cup Beads [50]

Beads per lot:

50

Cost per bead:

8.2 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

4mm thick by 10mm wide cup-shaped 5-petal flowers (i.e., bead caps) with the hole through the center.  When viewed from the side, the beads are very thin.

Colors/description:

Translucent medium topaz or amber.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

The beads appear to be in good shape.  However, they do have a somewhat rustic appearance.  Not all the flowers have the exact same uniform shape; and when viewed close-up, various surface defects can be seen, such as lines or wrinkles inside the cups – but your customers won't notice unless they peer at the beads very closely, or use a magnifying glass.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

I really like these beads, and also the darker ones.  They appear bright and richly colored even in indoor light.  Keep in mind that you'll probably be stringing them so that they'll be seen from the narrow side-edge.
