These beads are a double diamond shape. They are 15 mm from hole to hole and 15 mm at the widest point. They taper to 6 mm at the points. The filigree is rough. The color is bright gold. In spite of the filigree the beads have some nice weight to them. The bead channel will accommodate a 1.5 mm string with persuasion and a 1 mm cord easily. Price is for each bead.
