Arcos® par Puca® N. 290 - 03000/33001 (White Light Mat)

White light matte finish provides a velvety, non-reflective surface on these precision-engineered 5x10mm Arcos® par Puca® beads. Each component features three parallel 0.8mm holes, meticulously spaced to ensure perfect alignment during complex beadweaving projects. The structural integrity of these Czech glass beads allows for consistent tensioning, making them a foundational element for sophisticated geometric designs.

• Ergonomic crescent shape designed by French artist Annick Puca.
• Three-hole configuration for multi-dimensional stability in jewelry.
• Matte finish prevents glare and adds a modern, high-end feel.
• Seamlessly designed to work with the entire Les Perles par Puca® range.

French artistic vision meets centuries of Czech glassmaking tradition in this versatile component. The unique arch profile is specifically intended to act as a decorative frame, often used as an elegant border for a Cabochon® par Puca®. This synergy between shapes is the hallmark of the Puca® system, allowing designers to build intricate lace-like textures and layered structures with professional ease.

Advanced jewelry artists utilize the Arcos® par Puca® to create circular motifs and fan-shaped structures that are impossible with standard single-hole beads. For optimal results in structural weaving, we recommend using S-lon FIRE polyethylene thread, which offers the high tensile strength needed for multiple thread passes through the bead without adding unnecessary bulk. For a striking contrast, pair these with jet black beads to emphasize the architectural lines of your work.

Consistency in hole diameter is critical when integrating these with other shapes like the Samos® par Puca®. The 0.8mm passage is optimized for beading needles size 10-12, ensuring smooth transit even during the final reinforcing passes of a necklace or bracelet. Whether used in complex peyote patterns or specialized Les Perles par Puca® tutorials, these matte white arches provide a professional and architectural finish to any handmade jewelry piece.
