CiM 957 -1 and -2: Desert Pink Uniques


CiM Desert Pink is a soft dainty pink, a very pretty pink.

-1 Unique is, for all practical purposes, appears almost indistinguishable from the original color.

-2 Unique has a brownish cast to it, just enough to push it out of the realm of being pink. Although it's a subtle difference, in the world of pretty pinks, it's enough to turn it into a more of a tan or a taupe colour.

This segmented bead is, from left to right, a base of

  • -1
  • original
  • -2
Each segment has two rows of dots, which are, from left to right
  • original
  • -2
  • -1
  • -2
  • -1
  • original
If that seems confusing - try this:



The -1 dots on the original base, and the original dots on the -1 base are virtually invisible. The -2 dots show up on the -1 and original base. And the -1 and original dots show on the -2 base.

The -2 probably has it's own uses as a soft, fleshy tan colour.

I notice that the distinction between the -2 and the original seems really subtle on this monitor - and less so on my other monitor - so if they seem very close here - the difference is more obvious in real life.
