Why You'll Love These Beads

The tiny 2–2.5mm faceted cut catches light beautifully, giving your jewelry a refined and polished look. Natural stone variations mean every strand has its own unique color character — no two pieces are exactly alike. Order multiple strands at once to ensure color consistency across your batch.

Note: As these beads are produced in large factory batches, the stated quantity (~170 pcs) reflects the minimum count per strand. Actual counts may be slightly higher. We recommend ordering enough strands at one time to avoid minor color differences between batches.
