Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
The shape adds a subtle architectural note, helping the finished jewelry feel planned rather than overly soft. This scale gives makers room to adjust the design from delicate to more substantial without changing the stone family. Faceting gives the strand a brighter surface, which can make simple jewelry feel more polished.
Obsidian is volcanic glass, which gives it a smooth, clean look that can make jewelry feel modern and graphic. Since this strand is offered in Natural Color, small tone shifts, inclusions, or cloudy areas should be expected and can make the finished jewelry feel more individual.
