Comments: |
These beads have less white in them (i.e., milkiness) than most opalescent beads have. I think I would have preferred more milkiness, but these are attractive in their own way. Please note that in low light, they can look somewhat dull (which wouldn't happen if they were milkier). I did carry 6x9mm pink opalescent faceted rondelles once before, but these beads are sufficiently different than I am giving them a new number. The beads came from the supplier loose, and I should have strung some of them on a long pin so that you could see them from the side, but I was working in a hurry. Sorry. |
