These faceted gemstones have a lovely vintage look and a subdued sparkle and will work nicely within many of your beading projects. They have a high grade natural gemstone appeal and are simply irresistible. They are machine faceted, hand polished and have a hole which will allow a size 12 or smaller beading needle to pass through. These kinds of beads are best suited to stringing projects rather than beadweaving as the natural stone may crack from multiple passes of the needle. Due to the nature of these natural stones, small irregularities are to be expected.

These natural stone beads are cut and polished by a combination of machine and hand finishing. Due to the way they are processed, the size of beads can differ up to 0.5mm and result in a different strand length.

The beauty of natural products is their organic and varied nature so precison and exactness here is not typical of these products. These stone beads are ideal for stringing projects but not reccomened for elaborate beadweaving.
