"When I reorder, will the beads from the two orders be identical?" The answer to this question depends on the type of bead you order.

Handmade (lampwork, India glass) beads will always be slightly different from bead to bead. Czech glass beads are fairly consistent, but they can differ slightly in color between production runs. This is most likely to occur with beads that are a two tone color or with the 'opal' (semi-opaque) colors. The beauty of gemstone, of course, is that it is never quite the same. We try to have consistent, reliable vendors so that the stock we get is at least very similar from shipment to shipment.
