These freshwater pearls are a magical deep green with rainbow highlights. These pearls are drilled on the side so if you needed wings for an angel or fairy, these would be perfect. They would also work well in a tribal application where you wanted the impression of teeth. The pearls are thin, but there are no breaks in the nacre. The color is good with a nice shine. Each strand is 16 inches long and contains approximately 192 pearls on each strand.
