Yes, the hole in this one is almost decent, as you see.

Bighole bead. Effetre, 2007^[1] . blue goldstone and handmade stringer trailing.

I have an exactly head on version of this picture, with the bead canted at an even weirder angle (a result of the bumps from the floral trailing) but because the hole doesn't show, it doesn't really read as a bead.

More traditional shot. Oooh, bad photographer, failed to remove dust.

And really, the holes on this thing are almost decent. If I only made a couple hundred more of these things...
