Czech Glass Spindle Beads, 18x7mm, Blue Purple Violet with Gold Wash (Pack of Six)

These are lovely elongated spindle beads in a rich mix of blue, purple and violet, finished with a warm gold wash that gives them a real depth of colour. Each bead is 18x7mm, so they have a generous presence without being too heavy, and the hole runs top to bottom through the middle, making them straightforward to string or wire-wrap.

You get six beads per pack, which is just right for a pair of drop earrings with beads to spare, or for spacing out along a bracelet or necklace design. The gold wash catches the light beautifully against the cool violet tones, so they work particularly well paired with antique gold findings.

They are made by artisan glassworkers in the Czech Republic, and the quality is exactly what you would expect from Czech glass. If you like a bead with a bit of drama to it, these are a really good one to have in your collection.
