Cabochon par Puca® N. 73 - Metallic Mat Old Silver Spotted

Achieve a professional, high-end look in your bead embroidery without the weight of heavy semi-precious stones. Finding the perfect center for a focal piece can be challenging, but this 18 mm Cabochon® par Puca® provides a lightweight, perfectly calibrated solution for any intricate design, especially when paired with size 11/0 Preciosa seed beads to secure the glass in place.

Metallic Mat Old Silver Spotted finishes offer a sophisticated, weathered aesthetic that mimics ancient metalwork or natural stone textures. These Czech pressed glass components are manufactured to exacting standards in the heart of Europe, ensuring every piece fits perfectly within your bezels and creative patterns.

Designing jewelry with a cohesive look is effortless when you combine these centers with other unique shapes from the collection. You can easily frame your centerpiece using Samos® par Puca® or integrate them with Amos® par Puca® and Arcos® par Puca® for a truly multidimensional effect that looks like high jewelry.

Beautifully complements contrasting tones like siam red or stays sophisticated with a neutral accent of crystal clear for a monochromatic appearance. For a striking contrast, pair this old silver finish with dark jewel tones or hematite to create a vintage-inspired look that captures the light without being overly glossy.

French bead artist Annick Puca created this range to ensure all Les Perles par Puca® elements work in perfect harmony. This French design heritage, combined with the legendary Czech glassmaking tradition, means you have access to professional-grade supplies used by master beaders in high-fashion tutorials worldwide.

For best results when constructing your beadwork, we recommend using Nymo thread or S-lon Fire for maximum strength. These high-quality materials, used with beading needles size 10-12, ensure your stitches remain tight and durable through years of wear while passing easily through your beadwork layers.
