    Soft & Subtle Shades of Pink

    I just LOVE the quality of ALL of the beads in my last order. I am always impressed with the quality of each and every item, the use of 'green' packaging, fabulous customer service, and super fast shipping. The Bead Chest is a treasure trove of very unique beads at reasonable prices and I shall continue to support this fine business. Heartfelt thanks for everything you have done over the years.

    Gorgeous Dark Blue Beads

    These surpassed my expectations. These glass beads are very nice.

    I am extremely happy with them.

    They arrived quickly, and rgwt were very well packaged.

    I highly recommend these, if you are looking for a larger, dark blue glass bead.
