Amazing unusual color- kind of a flat matte opaque, light mauve purple. The first photo shows it in sunlight, and the other two are indoor light. Each hank is 10" long with four rows of beads when laid flat- see photo of one hank, shown around a penny. These weigh on average 3.1 grams each. The bead count is 28-29 per inch, and the millimeter diameter range is 1.3-1.4 mm on avg. ONE HANK is shown in photo #2.
I have over 300 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.
