Czech Glass Hibiscus Flower Beads: Pink Lilac Rainbow AB (12mm, Pack of 4)

These are 12mm Czech glass hibiscus flower beads in a soft pink lilac, finished with a rainbow AB coating that catches the light and gives each bead a gentle iridescent shimmer. You get four beads in a pack, which is a lovely amount to work with, whether you are making a pair of earrings and want a spare or two, or dotting them through a bracelet for a floral touch.

The detail on these is really nice. The pressed hibiscus petal shape is well defined, and the AB finish means the colour shifts slightly depending on the light, picking up lilac, pink and soft iridescent tones. They work beautifully alongside other Czech glass beads, seed beads, or simple metal findings.

They are handmade by artisan glassworkers in the Czech Republic, so there may be the tiniest variation between beads, but that is part of the charm. A really versatile little floral bead for all sorts of makes.
