Labradorite beads are nicely cut in a smooth rondelle shape, alternately called a smooth button bead. Stock has a light grey base color, good clarity and excellent blue 'flash' as you can see from the picture. Beads are of handmade workmanship but bead size and shape are rather uniform. Bead diameters range from 5.2mm to 5.5mm and are strung on strands that are 14 inches in length.
