Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
Faceting helps the bead catch light from different angles, which is useful when the design needs subtle sparkle. This smaller size works well when the design needs gemstone detail without adding much visual weight. The faceted finish adds small flashes of light without changing the basic character of Agate.
Agate is valued in beadwork for its layered bands, cloudy areas, and natural pattern shifts, so it rarely looks flat even in a simple strand. Use dyed material when a design calls for a more deliberate color effect than the natural stone would usually provide.
