Kalos® par Puca® N. 17 - Opaque Light Rose Ceramic Look

Precision-molded in the Czech Republic, these 4 x 3 mm two-hole components exhibit the high-level tolerances required for complex beadweaving. The Kalos® par Puca® shape offers a slim, button-like profile with two parallel 0.8 mm holes, ensuring perfect alignment when used in structural designs. Their opaque light rose ceramic look provides a soft, porcelain-like aesthetic that brings a delicate touch to professional jewelry projects where consistent geometry is paramount.

Designed by renowned French artist Annick Puca as part of the interconnected Les Perles par Puca® ecosystem, these beads are specifically created to pair with Amos® par Puca® and Arcos® par Puca® components. This French design heritage, combined with legendary Czech glassmaking tradition, ensures that each glass pressed bead integrates seamlessly with other shapes in the collection, such as Minos® or Samos®, allowing for sophisticated, modular jewelry designs.

Achieving professional results with multi-hole beads requires careful consideration of thread diameter and needle selection. For maximum durability in woven structures, we recommend using S-lon FIRE, which offers incredible strength and minimal stretch, ensuring multiple thread passes through the bead without compromising the work. These 4x3mm beads are best utilized with beading needles size 10-12, providing the necessary precision for intricate patterns and tutorials.

Innovative jewelry patterns often utilize the unique dual-hole configuration of the Kalos® shape to create stable circular motifs or layered textures. This soft pink hue beautifully complements crystal clear accents for a classic look, or for a striking modern contrast, pair with deep teal tones to make the rose finish pop. Whether creating bracelets or elaborate necklaces, the consistency of the Czech glass beads ensures a high-end, professional finish in every project.
