Encasement beads, which clear glass do you prefer?

 Caribbean Metallic Beads featuring Double Helix Zephyr Clear glass encasement.

(below) Peony Fade Mixed beads in Sea Salt Style featuring encasement in Effetre Super Clear glass.

Effetre glass, made in Italy, seems to LOVE to be etched. It takes on a super smooth sea glass feel.
Double Helix Zephyr clear glass, made in the USA,  is a fantastic crystal clear magnetizer of designs, but does not like to be etched.  :) Just my thoughts and some pictured examples. Hugs- Jenelle
