Laser Etched Rectangle Beads - Matte Turquoise, Dichroic Cat Design - 18x12mm, Set of 2

These are two very special Czech glass beads, and the kind you don't come across very often. Each one is an 18x12mm rectangle in a soft matte turquoise, with a dichroic cat design on the front and back that shifts and shimmers with the light. The design is laser etched directly into the glass, so it's completely permanent and won't fade or rub off with wear.

Because they're handmade, there may be very slight differences between the two beads, but that's part of what makes them feel genuinely crafted rather than mass-produced. They're a rare UK import and not easy to get hold of.

At 18x12mm, they work beautifully as statement earring drops, or you could use one as a focal bead on a bracelet or necklace. If you like beads with a bit of personality and a touch of colour, these are a lovely thing to have in your collection.
