This set of beads looks great on my Chamillia bracelet. The colors are not as vivid as they appear in the picture because they have a colored core with clear glass on top. From the side you see very little color. It would be nice if there were some way for retailers to identify which beads have this kind of construction. I did not realize, from looking at the picture that the designs in the four beads are identical so there is not as much variety as you would expect from looking at the picture. Quality is good.
