Czech Glass Saturn Beads 8x10mm | Clear Amber with Picasso Finish | Set of Eight (8)

These are Czech glass Saturn beads in a warm, clear amber with a Picasso finish, and they are a lovely thing to have in your making stash. Each bead is 8x10mm with that distinctive flying-saucer silhouette - a flattened, ringed shape that sits beautifully on a headpin for earrings or adds real interest along a bracelet. You get eight beads in a pack.

The Picasso finish is what makes them special. It settles into the surface with earthy, slightly mottled tones that give each bead its own character, so no two are quite identical. The clear amber base keeps the look warm without being heavy, and the finish adds just enough rusticity to work well with natural materials like leather cord, linen thread or wooden beads.

They are handmade by artisan glassworkers in the Czech Republic, and that shows in the depth and texture of the finish. Pair them with matte seed beads or simple metal findings and they will do most of the work for you.
