Natural Black Labradorite Round 2mm Big Hole 6mm Gemstone Jewelry Making Beads Findinds Supplies

OK, this is my personal feelings about the product, but the beads I received were not like the picture, they were mostly grey or black without showing streaks, which was what I liked about them. Other than the color, the beads are high quality, but you only get enough to make 1 whole bracelet of beads, these are best to use as a few here & there, like in a men's memory wire design where you would have black or silver tube beads between a few of.these odd grey/black ones. If they had the streaks of white in them, I would actually be excited to use them, unfortunately, they will probably sit in the bottom of my box for a long time, oh well?

Like other customers, the stones I received were not like the picture. And I can understand of commercial photo enhancements. I would understand that it is labradorite or black Larvikite, but I miss the beautiful transparency and lights that shines in the photograph. The beads are all dark gray or black without much chatoyance. Otherwise, they arrived very quickly, and can be used in some work but without much or the expected enthusiasm. Really. Very dark. There is no magic.

They are okay I guess. A few beads came broken, but the pieces were not in the bag, so obviously they were sent out that way(expect more like 12-13inches after disposing of the duds). The beads are not polished. The holes are off center. Even at this price point you can do better with other beads.

I used them because i liked the look of the beads. I intentionally didn't return them. But I had to look twice because I thought the wrong thing was delivered. The beads are pretty matted, very little shine to them and my strand was mostly black and grey. no white tones. You really have to look for that labradorite color but its there. It's tricky because they are beads. Like I said. I kept them even though i could have returned them. but when they cam it was black and grey matted stones.

I was truly expecting to receive beads like the ones in the picture on the site, but no. The strand I received are not nearly as polished and attractive as the the ones advertised. They are rather dull, and mainly gray. I will probably order elsewhere next time.

Based on the stone it is what I expected.The only issue is that the sales picture is overly enhanced and is the reason for more white shown. Although if u take picture in natural light the stone looks black and gray. With the lightning you can capture the white pigmentation in stone .

These were not what I expected....they did not have the shine that I had hoped. They were smaller then I realized, and just not what I realized I was getting.

These were supposed to be 8mm and the ones I received are more like a 6. I'm extremely saddened about this.
