Cabochon par Puca® N. 206 - Metallic Mat Light Blue

A shimmering morning mist on a tranquil lake serves as the perfect inspiration for this exquisite glass component. This Cabochon® par Puca® offers a sophisticated touch to your jewelry designs, featuring a unique metallic matte finish that glows with a subtle, velvety luster. Because of its flat back and perfectly domed top, it serves as an ideal center focal point for intricate bead embroidery or structured woven bezels that require a consistent 14mm shape.

Combining French elegance with traditional Czech glassmaking, this element belongs to the exclusive collection by Les Perles par Puca®. Annick Puca designed these pieces with a modular philosophy in mind, ensuring they integrate gracefully with other shapes in the line. You can create a stunning architectural frame around this center stone using Samos® par Puca® beads, which were specifically developed to embrace the curves of these cabochons for a professional finish.

Bezeling this 14mm beauty is a joy for any bead weaver looking to practice advanced techniques like peyote or right-angle weave. To achieve a professional, tight fit, many artists choose high-quality Preciosa seed beads in sizes 10/0 or 11/0 to build the surrounding structure. For a striking contrast that makes the metallic aqua tones pop, pair this light blue shade with warm coral or soft peach accents in your next necklace or brooch project.

Artisans worldwide appreciate the versatility of this Czech glass cabochon for everything from statement pendants to elegant cocktail rings. Since it is part of a larger ecosystem of shapes, including Arcos® par Puca® and Minos® par Puca®, the design possibilities are virtually endless. Whether you are following an official designer tutorial or inventing your own masterpiece, the consistent quality and stunning color of these matte light blue elements will provide a luxurious foundation for your craft.
