Hélios® par Puca® N. 57 - Metallic Mat Old Gold Spotted

Vintage-inspired jewelry designs benefit immensely from the distressed elegance of these uniquely shaped components. Their organic, wing-like geometry allows for sophisticated layering that mimics natural textures found in high-end couture accessories. This specific finish provides a time-worn aesthetic that feels both ancient and contemporary, making it a favorite for artists seeking a sophisticated, earthy palette.

Hélios® par Puca® beads, designed by the renowned French artist Annick Puca, represent a perfect marriage of Parisian chic and traditional Czech glass craftsmanship. The unique 3-hole configuration of these 6 x 10 mm beads enables intricate beadweaving structures that are impossible with standard shapes. The Metallic Mat Old Gold Spotted finish adds a rich, speckled texture that catches the light with a subtle, non-reflective glow.

• Versatile 3-hole design for complex structural builds.
• Elegant matte metallic finish with a vintage spotted effect.
• Perfectly calibrated 6 x 10 mm size for precision jewelry work.
• Engineered to integrate seamlessly with the entire Les Perles par Puca® system.

These multi-hole beads are specifically designed to nestle into complex patterns alongside other shapes from the collection, such as Amos® par Puca® or the curved Arcos® par Puca®. Beautifully complements yellow topaz for a harmonious look, or try pairing with dark sapphire for a striking, high-contrast regal effect. Because they are part of a coordinated system, the design possibilities are virtually endless.

For best results when working on intricate mandalas or structural necklaces, we recommend using high-strength S-lon FIRE thread to ensure your jewelry maintains its shape over time. Since the 0.8 mm hole size allows for multiple thread passes through the bead, using S-lon thread or N-series nylon with beading needles size 10-12 ensures a professional, secure finish for your custom jewelry pieces.
