Help with finding a bead

Hi all,
I've been looking for a Toho seed bead size 11 that is a very pale blue, opaque with a cloudy look to it and not shiney. I can't figure out how to identify this bead. I also had some in a seafoam green color. Ring any bead bells?
Thanks!
Teresa

Teresa - When I have trouble identifying seed beads, I go to whimbeads.com - it has the largest listing and clearest pictures of Japanese seed beads I've ever seen. Hope that helps!

and if it's not shiney, then it's probably a matt finish (and I'd check the semi-matt silver or gilt lined ones....your description sounds like them.
