Description: Glass Beads
Details: These glass beads are each around an inch and a half in length. All AJGlass beads have been properly annealed. Due to the differences in monitor settings, the colors of these beads may look slightly lighter, slightly darker, or otherwise different on your monitor than the beads themselves. The “straight white lines” on these beads are light reflections. Letters are provided for purposes of identification.

Contact: Please note me if you are interested in purchasing any of these beads.
Payment: PayPal. Other payment options may also be accepted.
Shipping: I ship beads via US Post in packaging suitable for glass beads.
Delivery: Please allow one week for delivery, longer for international orders. Weather permitting, I ship the following business day after payment has been received and cleared. Beads will be shipped with delivery confirmation.

Discussion: I think that these beads would make for excellent centerpieces in necklaces and that they would also make interesting subjects for, or additions to, several wire wrapping projects. I also think that these beads would make for unique discussion pieces. A, B, and C have interesting enameled textures and they have a nice tactile feel to them. These beads are created from glass, and like all glass they can chip or break if dropped/thrown/crushed or otherwise abused. These beads are NOT suitable for small children, and they pose a choking hazard if swallowed.

Further comment: I originally called the shape of these beads Dripping Rounds, since they were round beads which had been allowed to drip downward. However, several fellow artists mentioned to me that the shape of these beads reminded them of a duck’s head. So I renamed their shape to be Duck Head and that’s why these beads are called Duckies. Of course, these beads are not intended to represent an actual duck’s head – they just look similar to one.

If you’re into ducks or pastel colors, or if you have a very unique fashion sense, then these Pastel Ducky glass beads are for you. I am pleased to be able to provide them as pieces that I am offering for sale online. Note me if you are interested in purchasing any of these pieces.

Sales history: As a member of The Southeastern Michigan Glass Beadmakers Guild, I sold many of my glass pieces at the 2007 Winter Wonders Glass Show in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. More recently, I sold numerous glass pieces as a participant in the 2008 Spring Bead Bonanza show, which took place in Southfield, Michigan and which is a show that I have been participating in for many years.

Guarantee: I will do everything that I can to make sure that you are satisfied with your purchase. So if you are not satisfied with these beads for any reason, please return them prepaid in their original condition and in their original packaging for a full refund. Shipping costs are the responsibility of the purchaser. Please request return authorization in advance.
