Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
Round beads are a reliable choice when the design needs a clean base that can work alone or with spacers and accent stones. The compact size keeps the finished piece light, which is helpful for earrings, fine bracelets, and subtle necklace accents. The polished finish keeps the beads smooth and easy to combine with other jewelry components.
Howlite beads are useful when a design needs a natural gemstone identity with enough variation to keep the finished piece from looking mass-produced. Dyed beads can help makers create repeated pieces or matching sets with less variation between strands.
