Czech Glass Faceted Drops, Dangle Bead, Teardrop, 20x9mm (Set of 4) Artisan Jewelry Making

These are large, striking Czech glass teardrop beads in a deep black with an AB finish that catches the light and throws off a subtle iridescent shimmer. Each bead measures 20x9mm, so they have a real presence on a design, and the threading hole runs top to bottom, making them straightforward to use as drops or dangles.

You get four beads in a set, which is just right for a pair of earrings with a couple of spares, or for dotting along a necklace as feature drops. They would also work beautifully as pendant beads on their own, hung from a simple chain or cord.

The faceting gives them a gem-like quality without being fussy. If you work in dark, moody colour palettes or like a bit of gothic elegance in your jewellery, these fit right in. They pair well with gunmetal findings, seed beads in jet or midnight blue, and other AB-finished Czech glass.
