How to Use

To achieve the best results with these 3mm faceted hematite beads, we recommend using a high-quality flexible beading wire, such as a 0.015" diameter nylon-coated stainless steel cable. Because of their faceted edges, they pair beautifully with silk cord or fine-gauge artistic wire for a more traditional aesthetic.

When designing, treat these as both focal points and accents. If you are creating a monochromatic bracelet, use a high-contrast spacer—such as sterling silver or gold-filled findings—to make the purple-gold tones pop. For those practicing bead weaving, ensure you use a size 10 or 12 beading needle to navigate the precision-drilled holes with ease.

What You Can Make & Create

The design possibilities are limited only by your imagination. Consider using these beads for the following applications:

• Layered Wrap Bracelets: Use as the primary bead for a luxurious, multi-strand wrap bracelet that transitions perfectly from day to evening wear.
• Fine Jewelry Spacers: Use these between larger pearls or gemstone rounds to add a modern, metallic touch to classic designs.
• Intricate Bead Weaving: Due to their uniform size and superior luster, they are an excellent choice for complex patterns like the Right Angle Weave or Herringbone stitch.
• Delicate Chokers: String these on a fine chain or silk cord to create a subtle, glimmering "illusion" necklace that looks elegant when worn alone or layered with longer gold pendants.
• Earring Accents: Utilize as part of a beaded drop earring or as a decorative accent on a hoop earring design.
