Beautiful green beads with some dark purple

Beautiful green beads with a handful of deep purple beads (almost black). The matte finish initially bothered me because it seemed really dusty and flattened out the beautiful translucent qualities of fluorite. They also felt dry in hand, almost like a powdery surface. However... since this is a mala and it gets handled a lot they've gained color intensity and a bit of translucence slowly over time from my hand's natural oils. The purple beads have gained some character also, showing some whitish striping. Initial impressions of these almost convinced me I didn't like matte beads but they've come to life in real world usage, and I'm now trying another type of matte bead from Tejas - they reward your mantra accumulations!

While the findings and guru bead are from various internet sources, the brown dzi beads under the guru bead (guru bead's holes were so large I couldn't knot the cord) and marking it are from Tejas, as are the fluorite roundels that set off the markers. I'm finding that I'm using the fluorite roundels a LOT as markers on the malas I make. Everything high Tejas quality.

Lovely beads

Great color!
