Lovely green with a slight yellow undertone, also a tiny bit of grey undertone. Reminds me of wasabi, and also of jade but retains that bit of yellow underneath. Wonderful greasy finish allows some light to transmit through the bead. See video.
Hanks are almost 6 inches long, eight strands, 1.1-1.2 mm and 35 beads per inch as strung. They weigh approximately 2.6 grams each.
I have over 200 listings (and more in stock) of antique and vintage seed beads from Murano, Italy, the Czech Republic, and France. Most are Italian, handmade and over 100 years old. I've been working with tiny antique seed beads as a beaded purse restorationist for over 30 years.
If you want more depth, definition and rarity in your bead work, they tiny beads are wonderful. They are great for Native American beadwork, beaded flowers on wire, restoring vintage or antique clothing or reproductions, and for creating legacy jewelry and other pieces with finishes, colors and sizes no longer made! Contact me if you need something you don't see in my listings.
