Czech Glass Ocean Blue w/ Picasso Grooved Rectangle
These rectangular Czech glass beads display a beautiful deep blue hue with milky striations, reminiscent of the ocean's crashing waves. The Picasso finish enhances the blue with a touch of earthy brown pigment while a random pattern of grooves adds interesting texture and an aged appearance. Try using one of these beads as the focal point of a bracelet or necklace accented with warm copper components. Czech glass beads are still made in small quantities by hand and may display slight variations in appearance.

Not what I thought...
Date:August 22, 2012
Pros: Size, Versatile
Cons: Color
"The pictures do not portray this item accurately. They are less bright and really dull colored in person. I ordered 2 for earrings and the ones I received did not match at all. There goes that idea! If a customer only orders 2, the person packing it should at least pick 2 that match! You would think...."

"This bead is just gorgeous! A friend said that they though it was a gemstone and was surprised when I told him it was Czech glass. I took this bead and combined it with sterling silver chain, bead cap, findings and crystal picasso roundells. The result is simple but very fun!"
