Recommendations

For beads 4mm and smaller, it is recommended to start with stringing wires no larger than .013inch / .33mm. This will ensure a proper fit and in most cases allow for feeding of the wire tip back through the beads for a clean finish.

Elastic cords can be used with beads 4mm and larger, but it will not fit through most beads smaller than 4mm. It's recommended to use 0.5mm elastic cord.

These recommendations are intended to help guide you for a successful project. With time and experience you'll discover what works best for your designs.

Purple Sparkle

These are wonderful beads! I have been using 2mm beads with miyuka delica clear crystal and Tejas hematite. I’ll be ordering more and in different sizes. They’re very uniform and 4lb Fireline passes through the holes 3x.

Outstanding Quality with Beautiful Depth of Color

These Purple Garnets are absolutely beautiful. The deep burgundy and plum tones have wonderful depth, and the microfaceting gives them an elegant shimmer. I purchased them for my new Follow Your Collection at Amae Jewelry, and they exceeded my expectations. The quality and consistency are outstanding, making them a pleasure to work with. I can't wait to incorporate them into more pieces in the collection. Beautiful gemstones and excellent quality!
