Original Message:   Re: But without the underlayer we see a nice dark red

I have always been interested in these beads either made with a core or just plain. We display quite a few examples of them in both states in our Museum. The ones with a white or yellow core definitely look more like carnelian but the other are sparsely found. In the picture the two inner stands are just plain glass and the other have a white or yellow core. The thickness of the red layer do change the aspect of the bead.
