4mm Lichen Green Matte Round Beads [100]

Cost per bead:

3 cents

Bead material:

Glass

Country of origin:

Czech Republic

Size/shape:

4mm round (spherical), although the picture shows that the beads are slightly elongated, like ovals.

Colors/description:

A mixture of translucent greens and possibly browns, with a matte finish.

Hole size:

1mm (estimated).

Defects:

For the most part, the beads appear to be in good shape.  However, the picture revealed that a few beads in each lot of 100 are cracked.  The number of cracked beads appears to be under 5%, so I decided not to apply a discount.

How photographed:

At the window in natural daylight.

Comments:

As stated above, these "round" beads actually appear to be somewhat oval in shape.  When I look at the actual beads, however, they appear more round than the picture makes them look.  Perhaps there was something about the angle that I took the picture at that made them look oval.
