Cranberry color Potomac Pearls are handcrafted. Glass artisans dip perfectly round 2mm glass beads through dozens of different thin layers of pearl coating. Each layer must dry before coating the next. These layers bond and strengthen into a beautiful and durable pearl pearl finish. Potomac Pearls are coated many times more than the cheap pearls that chip. The quality of Potomac Pearls exceeds even Czech Pearl standards, and competes with Swarovski's 5810 round pearls for shine and quality. Enjoy using these premium pearls in your stringing, beadweaving, knotting, wedding, earring, pendant, and other designs! Receive a 16" (40cm) strand with approximately 200 pearls in each pack.

They make it easy to order, have comparable prices, and many choices including beads not found in other stores. Also love the designs and the fact there is a pattern for each.

Products are easy to find on the website. Large selection of beads and good sales. I have had some log in issues. I have also had issues with bead quality. Some aren’t drilled all the way and the color flaked off of lined beads.
