      The awesome thing about these beads is that the colour depends on the metals in it. Chromium beads are green. Manganese beads are dark red or black. Iron beads are yellow. Copper beads are bright blue. Sodium beads are transparent! And then sometimes I have a few mixed together and that gets interesting.
