BRCbeads Gorgeous Natural Brown Botswana Agate Gemstone Faceted Round Loose Beads 6mm Approxi 15.5 inch 58pcs 1 Strand per Bag for Jewelry Making

These beads are very pretty but I'm not sure these are real jade like it claims. It looks exactly like a dyed agate bead. I got around to actually using these recently and am just not happy with these beads. Also, though it's only been 23 days since I ordered I am not allowed to return them like their 60 day return policy claims. I also didn't receive any "free gift" so not sure what that's about...I made sure these actually came from BRC so not really happy with this company at this time. I have bought items in the past that were okay from BRC but the whole all around description of this product seems false.

(8mm saphire jade beads)The lighting makes the beads look lighter. The beads in person is a shade or 2 darker than the photos. If you don't have black beads next to them you'd think they are black in color. The color according to the write-up is enhance. If so, no wonder the beads all look similar. Also, although the word jade is used, I don't think these are jadeite or nephrite. The could be aventurine or agate color treated.I don't find anything negative about these beads except that I don't care for such deep shade of navy. If you like very dark navy that is blackish and faceted beads, you'd like them.

The string the beads came on is REALLY pink. The quartz, not so much. I mean, it's okay, but not very good quality or color. It will do for the purpose (healing, non-decorative) or I'd have returned it; just don't order it expecting anything like the picture. The attached photo was taken under a true-color light.

I ordered the natural green fire agate gemstones which appear bright green, almost kelly green online. What I received was a pasty, almost lime green. I've ordered lots of beads in the past, and I understand a computer photo can be off on the color, but never this badly. The seller is misrepresenting his product. Returning them, and I won't purchase from this seller again.

The bead's color stain on the string! Don't waste your money!

I bought the purple amethyst beads in 8mm size in February 2017 and they came as pictured and suited my needs perfectly. Then I bought the 4mm size purple amethyst beads in March 2017 (i.e., the exact same bead, just in a smaller size) and they are definitely not the same color. They are a noticeably lighter shade of purple. This means if you try to mix sizes on the same piece of jewelry, the difference will stand out.

This was the color I was looking for -- a cherry red. My strand is a bit darker than the photo shown on my monitor, but I'm just as glad they're not as pink. Nice subtle faceting, good even sizes, and you can reuse the silky cord they come on to do your own stringing.

The product looks nothing like the picture. The beads in the picture are a beautiful, rich golden yellow. The actual beads are on the gray side of yellow and not at all vibrant. Very disappointed.
