As I understand it, a doughnut bead is higher, but with flatter edges (though with the puckered indentation)--in other words, it is shaped like a doughnut. A round bead is as perfectly round as possible but still with a small pucker. Correct me if I am wrong here -- newbie myself.
My question is this: do people consider well-shaped well-puckered doughnut beads any less of quality than a well-shaped round bead? I agree that it's important to learn to form both shapes so that you get what you want consistently. But I see a lot of doughnuts out there, and, frankly, I prefer the doughnut shape for both stringing and wearing, so that's the shape I work toward.
