I bought these gold Toho 3-cut 8/0 seed beads from The Bead Parlor (yes, they do ship outside the US, thanks again, Shelly!) and I was very pleased to discover that they sparkle even more than in the photos. They are gorgeous! The 3-cut shape gives them extra shine and a very nice texture, too.
The first idea I came up with of what to use them for was an oriental design. I though that August's birthstone Peridot, Carnelian, Garnet and Amethyst gem stone beads would make a nice combination with the bright gold.
This is a wonderful bracelet.

ReplyDeleteSharDon & mdmB - true, it's so hard to photograph jewelry! Sometimes you have to take dozens of them before you're able to capture the right color and sparkle.. Thanks God I don't have to do it myself.. ;)
So regal looking!
