50pcs Adabele Austrian 8mm Faceted Loose Round Crystal Beads Purple Velvet Compatible with Swarovski Crystals for Jewelry Craft Making SS2R-827

I make jewelry, and I'm always looking for a cheap supplier of high quality crystals. My favorite is the genuine Swarovski crystals, but those are understandably pretty expensive. I've bought several crystals from this company in the past, and it's been hit or miss every time. I've ordered their Light Siam (a true red color) and gotten something closer to orange. Now, I've ordered these 'aqua' colored crystals, and gotten something closer to electric blue. They are inconsistent with the dyes they use for their crystals, and it's impossible to say if you'll get what you actually want, or something entirely different. While the prices for these are great, I think I'll just spend the extra money on the genuine Swarovski so I don't have to go through the hassle of waiting for my order to see if it's even the right color, and then the hassle of returning it.

Quality of crystals is nice, little smaller than I imagined but it worked for what I was doing. Arrived very fast. Gave it 4 stars cause I was shorted 8 crystals and needed 100 for my event. How do I get the ones I was shorted without buying more? I won’t need all the left overs if I buy more.

Color looks more teal than emerald & doesn't go with what I had intended at all. Nothing on the packaging indicates the color, so I assume I was sent the color I ordered. I'll exchange for the "fern", hoping to get a real green. Quality of beads seems good though. Warning: 4mm is very small

These beads are NOT the same color as swarovski Siam as they stated in the description. I took a chance because my regular supplier was out. I have never tried to substitute swarovski but this product seemed to be a match.Not only are they not the same color, they are not the same size! These are larger than the 4mm swarovski 5000 round beads.If you are trying to match the look of Siam round swarovski 5000 beads, steer clear of this product.The swarovski product is on the left in the picture, this product is pictured on the right.

One of the worst glass crystal beads I have ever bought. The shape and size are not as presented, not compatible with Swarovski 5000. This is not round. It's oblate. The AB is far too weak and worn out. I am very very very disappointed. The quality is so poor that the beads are not in exactly same size. I will never buy from this brand and seller again. It's hard to show how bad they are in photo, I tried my best.

I love the beautiful reflective quality of these crystal beads! They add a special look to the unique, custom gold-tone rosaries I hand make. I must admit though, they are rather pricey! I often buy clear crystal beads for the regular silver-tone Redemptive Mysteries Rosaries I make. And, I can buy several hundred clear beads for the same price I pay fro only 50 of these beads. Because of this I have to charge a little extra to make up for the cost. Also, this time it took extra time to ship and receive my order - delaying my ability to make new rosaries for my customers.

Lovely, clear small circular crystal beads that can be used as spacers for jewelry or added as embellishments to crafted projects such as Christmas ornaments. Very well made and uniform in size.

These are nice beads. I bought Peridot and made a rosary for my niece. Adabele has very nice beads and many colors. The quality of the beads are impeccable. I like the many facets on each bead and the light is reflected beautifully. The seller sends them out quickly and I will order more beads from them.

el color es muy bonito, tienen buen brillo y me parecen de buena calidad, mas delante pienso pedir otros colores, me gustaria que hubiera una opcion con colores mixtos.

Love this used for my dream catchers.

came quickly and very nice

I loved how consistent they are in size and love the sparkle they add to a product.
