You will receive Aquamarine Melon Cut Carved Rondelles 16" Beads -- one of the exact strands that you see in the photos. These genuine and 100% natural Aquamarine beads are not pristine gem quality, but we think they are quite special, nonetheless. There are some inclusions and polishing residue settled within the carved grooves, but the color is so nice and the translucent to lightly opaque stones have a faint glimmer of chatoyancy. These greyish-greenish-aqua pretties are cut like fat little melons with hand carved lobes along the sides. Very nice if you are not needing pristine stones. At this price one could buy all 3 in the different sizes and make a chunky, graduated 3 strand necklace. The beads on this approximate 15.5 inch strand range in size from 8-10mm in diameter by 4-6mm thick.
