This bead is seldom encountered as it was only made for a short while and then dropped from the Swarovski lineup. The color was called "Fantasy" and it is unusual in that it is a black bead but has a silvery finish on both sides. The usual Swarovski method puts the finish on only one side, this one has it effectively all over the bead. The result, as you can see in the photo, is that when the light hits it, it is scattered in multi directions, giving the illusion of being an AB bead but it isn't. 8mm facetted round. I suspect this bead to be one of the rarer lost finish beads. We sell them in lots of 6 pcs for $18. . As long as we have them. When we don't have them anymore then we won't sell them anymore. Order # BD-VN609D.
