If gambling on beads is your thing, these are the beads for you. They are fully functional dice and beads! The bead channel will accommodate a 0.5 mm cord and goes from one corner to the other, so none of the dots are disturbed by the hole. The die is an 8 mm square. The dots are a whitish-silver. These are vintage Czechoslovakian glass beads made in the 1980s or early 90s. These beads were made in molds. Price is for 10 beads.
