Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
A puffy coin bead adds surface area without becoming too heavy, which helps show the stone's color and texture. The size range makes it easy to match the same stone across bracelets, necklaces, and coordinated sets. The cut surface is useful when the design needs a little sparkle but still should read as natural gemstone.
Sunstone beads are useful when a design needs a natural gemstone identity with enough variation to keep the finished piece from looking mass-produced. This strand can be used on its own or mixed with other natural gemstone beads when the design needs more depth.
