23x7mm Rice (10) - Dark Cream w. Brown Picasso - Vintage Czech Glass Beads

Made from a white base of glass with a brown coating, these beads originate from Czechoslovakia in the 1970s.  They have a gloss finish and will give any project you use them on a definite touch of class!  The classic shape will look great on a necklace, bracelet or on earrings, being small enough to team up with another bead separating them.  Using a small bead to separate the main 'star' of the show, allows each & every bead to really shine - you'll be surprised at the difference your necklace will show if you use this method!

You really need to touch these beads to appreciate the smooth lustrous finish!  Only the Czech make beads like this!

The Picasso way of finishing a bead gives a speckled spotty effect, a really earthy look whilst the lustre enhances the coating, making this effect a really interesting bead to use - no two beads will ever be identical!

Measurements:  23mm long x 7mm wide with a 0.7mm threading hole

Quantity per pack:  10

These beads are from our famous bead haul years ago when we did a warehouse clearance from one of the original bead importers in the bead business in Australia.  You may or may not come across this style elsewhere, but not very often!  They are truly unique.
