Bead Shapes: Is There a Standard Chart?

by Mike Allen.

This may be the biggest chuckle of your day, but I have been pulling my hair out trying to find certain shaped, sizes and vertically drilled beads and crystals.

One place calls a pear shape, next a rice, etc.

I guess what I need is a resource with a description of all the shapes and nomenclature , so I can efficiently source what I need online, without physically seeing the material in person.
