I adore these beads. They have something about them that contemporary sterling beads do not have. I tried using them along with contemporary sterling beads on the same bracelet, the new ones clash and look garish. They polish up very well. Definitely worth their price.
In my mind I have a design worked out to use this as a pendant combined with
other cinnabar beads...colors just right for the upcoming holiday season!
This chain is shiny, sturdy, and pretty.
everything arrived quickly ans as described
My pieces are made from antique and vintage beads. These guys are a perfect addition since they work well with yellow, black and blue beads.
