I love cat's eye (fiber optic) beads, but it's been years since I've been able to find them in a reasonably large size (larger than 8 mm). I like the larger beads, because they have more surface area with the marvelous fiber optic effect. But I recently stumbled on a source for large fiber optic beads! I bought these fabulous peridot green cat's eye 16 mm heart-shaped beads with awesome shimmer. I alternated them these gorgeous beads with Swarovski peridot aurora borealis round faceted 8 mm crystals, spacing the beads with Swarovski peridot 3 mm faceted crystal bicones. This peridot green beauty is 15 3/4 inches long, with a 3-inch extender, giving it a working length of 15 3/4 to 18 3/4 inches. Signed RLN. Price: $35
