Item #: GBD-L-KYN-01

Availability:

It is rare when we find Kyanite beads of this top notch quality! Kyanite has a tendency to fracture along the long axis when it is fabricated. These may exhibit very small fractures, but these beads are about as good as it gets with Kyanite. They are an excellent shimmering blue color too. Beads are teardrop shaped, drilled across the top point and measure about 28mm tall and 14mm wide. Hole openings may be slightly enlarged. Sold individually.

Item #: GBD-LF-QCL-01

Availability:

Crystal Clear Quartz has been cut into elegant full teardrop shape. They have been fully and expertly faceted - well over a hundred faceted surfaces on each drop creates great sparkle! Drops are 19-20mm high and are about 10mm at the widest point. Drops are top drilled as shown; drilled holes may not be exactly level across the top, so please plan for this possibility in your design. While these drops have very good clarity, this is a natural product, so a few drops may have areas of slight cloudiness or 'lines' within the gemstone where the crystal structure changes, both typical of natural quartz. Sold individually.
