A partial metallic coating gives these 4mm fire-polished violet beads a shiny appearance. Mix them with silver-plated links and beads for a fun multi-strand bracelet or try them as dangles from a chandelier form to create eye-catching earrings. Glassmaking in the Czech Republic is an age-old industry, and these beads are still made in small quantities by hand. Due to the handmade nature of the glass, there may be a slight color variation from one batch to the next. These beads come in a 100-piece pack.
