Details

• Bead sizes are measured ranges; handmade metal beads vary slightly from bead to bead within them
• Holes run 1-4mm: most strands suit beading wire or fine cord, and the 4mm padre holes also take leather or thicker cord
• Finishes range from smooth and polished to hammered, faceted and engraved

Most of these strands are made with premium copper electroplating over brass, which gives them a warm copper finish. Together the seven strands give you spacers, rounds, nuggets and patterned rice beads in one warm metal palette. A ready-made copper toolkit for designers who want necklaces, bracelets and earrings that mix shapes and textures without mixing metals.
