River Rock

Another Vetro Odd Lot - this one called River Rock. I have to say, I like this one. A dark ivory variant - it looks like a translucent beige in the rod, but goes opaque streaky ivory when worked. It's quite a bit darker and smokier than dark ivory (either Moretti or Vetro). I can definitely see potential here. Goddesses anyone?

The bead with the black - couldn't tell you what the black used was, or even if it was black. Generic dark stringer hanging out on the table. Coulda been anything.
