Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
A faceted finish can make Lepidolite feel more refined while still keeping the natural gemstone character visible. The compact size keeps the finished piece light, which is helpful for earrings, fine bracelets, and subtle necklace accents. The faceted finish adds small flashes of light without changing the basic character of Lepidolite.
Lepidolite beads are useful when a design needs a natural gemstone identity with enough variation to keep the finished piece from looking mass-produced. The Natural Color finish leaves room for natural differences between beads, which is often exactly what makes a handmade piece feel thoughtful.
