Hélios® par Puca® N. 5 - Dark Bronze

Dark Bronze Hélios® par Puca® beads feature a sophisticated three-hole configuration specifically engineered for high-precision bead weaving. The 6 x 10 mm dimensions are manufactured with strict 0.8 mm hole tolerances, ensuring smooth multiple thread passes through the bead when using fine beading needles size 10-12. As a cornerstone of the Les Perles par Puca® collection, these fan-shaped components are designed to interlock seamlessly with other shapes such as Arcos® par Puca® for complex, architectural jewelry patterns.

Premium Czech glass serves as the foundation for this metallic finish, blending the heritage of Northern Bohemian glassmaking with the contemporary French design of artist Annick Puca. The Dark Bronze coating provides a deep, glossy luster that adds weight and luxury to handmade jewelry without the heaviness of solid metal. Because each bead is pressed with precision, the edges remain smooth, significantly reducing the risk of thread abrasion during the construction of intricate necklaces or bracelets.

Beautifully complements turquoise seed beads for a striking Southwestern contrast, or pair with jet black for a timeless, high-fashion aesthetic.

Advanced beaders can leverage the unique 3-hole layout to create dimensional 3D structures or ornate circular mandalas. The elegant silhouette pairs naturally with Amos® par Puca® to build layered, floral-inspired motifs in bead embroidery or woven designs. For the best structural integrity, we recommend using S-lon FIRE polyethylene thread or our stocked nylon beading threads to ensure your professional-grade creations maintain their shape and durability over time.
