Description
Hematite Plated Matt Gold 8x2mm Star Beads Strand
Approx 68 pieces beads on strand
As these beads are plated after being strung onto the wire, some beads may be stuck together. Using two pliers you can easily pop apart any beads that may be stuck.
Please understand that we do not offer refund or exchange to customer who cuts these strand and picks the perfect star and wanting refund or exchange for few pieces that is not perfect due to the fact that the Mohs hardness scale indicates a mineral’s resistance to scratching, with hematite rated at 6. While this makes hematite relatively durable, it’s not hard enough to prevent chipping or scratching during the bead-cutting and shaping process. When gemstones are cut and polished, those with lower hardness levels, like hematite, are more likely to show minor imperfections, uneven surfaces, or slight variations in shape and size due to the natural challenges of working with the material.
When these beads come in strands, you might notice that each bead isn’t perfectly uniform. This is a normal feature of hematite beads, as the hardness level can make it difficult to achieve a flawless finish or exact uniformity in shape. Instead, this gives each bead a unique look, adding to its natural character and appeal.
