Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
Use faceted beads when a design needs brightness, movement, and a cleaner finished surface. This is a practical middle range for everyday bracelets, simple necklaces, and repeatable small-batch designs. The cut surface is useful when the design needs a little sparkle but still should read as natural gemstone.
Map Stone gives makers a clear material story without requiring a long explanation, which is helpful for customer-facing handmade jewelry. Natural Color material is useful when the design should keep the stone's original character rather than a perfectly matched, factory-even look.
