These oval-shaped barrels have great turquoise color tones with just a bit of matrix. Note from the picture that some strands are more blue tone and others are more blue-green. If you have a preference, please let us know in the "Comments" section when you checkout. The beads are 6-6.5mm long and 4-4.5mm wide - all are cut very uniformly and have a glossy surface finish. Also note from the picture that a few of the longer beads have a ridge near the end, due to the way the beads are manufactured. Strung on 16 inch strands.
