The color type "Duracoat opaque dyed" means that the color is applied to a base color. The colors are beautiful, but this dyeing method can cause the color to change or fade faster with friction or skin contact. Therefore, Duracoat is added, which is an extra layer to better protect the color. This extra protective layer will make the bead hole slightly smaller, so keep this in mind when choosing your needle and thread.
