Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
The round shape keeps the focus on the natural color and natural character of Argentine Rhodochrosite. This scale gives makers room to adjust the design from delicate to more substantial without changing the stone family. The polished finish keeps the beads smooth and easy to combine with other jewelry components.
Argentine Rhodochrosite 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.
