I guess I wasn't alone in fooling around with my kimono beads this week in anticipation of the Japan WT release. I'm a little disappointed that the Rising Sun is not a matte bead, but at least I have gotten over my phobia about using the beads with regular shiny glass.

It's a stunning combo Silmaril. I think with the right glass they look fine. I know mine work well with the Swiss Mountain Crystal so I think the Rising Sun bead will look great.

I've been mixing mine up ever since they came out. I love the contrast of the matte and the shiny glasses together, kind of like velvet with its matte/shiny nap.

I like it, Silmaril.

I'm not sure the WT Sakura glass will mix well with the kimono beads, but I'd think the Rising Sun would balance the red kimono bead and make that easier to use.

I'm still aiming to get all the kimono beads, but so far have only two, that I use on a necklace.

Agree I like to add the pearls too. Kimonos are more versatile than they seem ~ even color-wise IMO.
