Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
Round Chrysocolla and Lapis Lazuli beads are easy to design with because they create a smooth rhythm in bracelets, necklaces, and simple strand work. The sizing is versatile enough for a single-material strand or for mixing with pearls, metal spacers, and other gemstones. The smooth finish makes the strand practical for everyday jewelry that needs comfort and clean movement.
Lapis pairs beautifully with gold, brass, pearl, and white stones when a design needs contrast and a more traditional gemstone look. Because the color has been dyed, it is best to avoid long soaking, harsh cleaners, and heavy friction after the jewelry is made.
