Turquoise Spiral Sprig Ceramic Beads

These beads are about 15 mm from hole to hole. This turquoise glaze drapes lusciously over this stoneware clay.  It is not exactly the same shade as 'scuba blue' which is one of the 2015 spring colors from Pantone).

The description of "scuba blue' on the Pantone website says that it 'conveys a sense of carefree playfulness' and 'offers a feeling of escape as it is reminiscent of a tropical ocean' which is capable of taking 'us off to an exotic paradise...even if only a fantasy'.  Sounds good to me! :)
