The beads are manufactured by home industries and no two
strings of beads are exactly the same. This makes the product
even more special. In a string with a specific shape of glass
beads, there will be variations in colour and the size of
the beads. These variations add to the value and uniqueness
of the product and are not an indication that the product
is of lower quality or a reject. Our emphasis is on individuality
and a natural look and we hand select every string of beads.
There are such a big variety of shapes and colours of beads
that we cannot guarantee that a specific colour is available
in a specific shape and size. Trust us that a combination
of shapes in a specific colour looks exquisite and works the
best. Visit Inspirations for interesting
ideas.
The holes in glass beads vary between 1 to 2.5mm wide and
are large enough for a variety of stringing material to be
used including leather, imitation leather (cotton cord), tiger
tail wire, elastic and artistic wire.

colours
The colour of beads in a string depends on the shape
and size of the beads as well the finishing of the product
namely polished with a high reflection or dull with
a sand blasted look.
Beads are available in shades of white (aqua), blue,
aquamarine, turquoise, green, pink, purple, orange and
naturals (black, charcoal grey, smokey grey, brown,
tea and cream).
The colour of beads are in the composition of the glass
material itself and colours will not rub off, run or
fade. You will be informed if the colour is enhanced
by herbal substances that might rub off or fade in water.

sizes
The sizes vary from small (7mm) to very big (40mm). This
influences the number of beads per string. With small beads,
there can be as many as 55 beads in a string and in very big
shapes it might be only 15 beads. The weight of a string of
beads depends on the size and shape thereof.
We classify the beads according to colour and size (regular
glass and bigger glass). We strongly recommend that you choose
a combination of shapes in colours you prefer.
