120pcs 8mm Clear Quartz Crystal Gemstone Beads for Jewelry Making with Crystal Stretch Cord Spacer Beads

Just as described. Purchased multiple times. Thank you.

These beads are perfect for everything. I make jewelry with them. The holes are the perfect size

I have examined these beads under a very bright light under strong magnification. They ARE very high quality GLASS. Very clean, pure, absolutely colorless glass. The holes are perfectly centered, smooth and clean. I have detected an occasional bubble and more consistent interior flow marks inside these otherwise excellent beads that are highly characteristic of glass, but which are never EVER present in genuine crystal quartz. I have owned tumbled and faceted pieces of rock crystal for DECADES, and examined them intensely for my own enjoyment, so while I am absolutely not a jeweler or gemologist, I do know very VERY WELL exactly what to look for. I even have true crystal quartz beads of this same size and quality of workmanship, and THOSE were what I sought. I shall be fair here and say that if I were looking specifically for **high quality glass beads**, I would buy a full kilo of these. That's two whole pounds in U.S weight plus a dollop extra. They ARE very high quality. But THEY ARE NOT QUARTZ. They are NOT made of the gem material that was allegedly offered. It is dishonorable to play such a wretched trick on customers especially for such a modest purchase. Thus, three honest stars for the physical quality, and two stars DENIED for the SERIOUS ERROR IN ETHICS.

Somehow not as brilliant or exciting as colorful beads but I’ll be pairing these with hematite, maybe tiger eyes, and black. It didn’t seem like 120 count but it was. Didn’t seem 8mm but it is the same size as my other 8mm beads. Maybe the clear is just playing games with my eyes. Now let’s see what I can make with these bad boys! Nice pass time create with beads. Wish I could get into selling them. Could be a good supplement.

Thank you
