Each bead varies in size, shape and color no two beads are exactly alike. Because these are natural stone beads, each one has its own character including crackling, inclusions, chips, etc... These beads are all center drilled, with the occasional bead having a slightly off center hole.
These beads measure about 4mm in diameter and the holes measure about .5mm to .8mm. The strand measures about 8" inches long and there are approximately Q50 beads on a strand. We believe this turquoise comes from the Hubei mines in China.
All photos have been taken indoors with daylight, but as always, computer and mobile screens display colors differently.
