Khéops® by Puca® N. 32 - Jet Copper

Jet Copper provides a sophisticated metallic sheen to these precisely engineered 6x6 mm triangular components, making them an essential staple for geometric bead weaving. These two-hole beads feature a unique equilateral triangle shape with parallel drill holes that allow for intricate structural designs. The consistency in size and hole alignment ensures that professional designers can achieve high-tolerance patterns without the frustration of irregular shapes. As part of the prestigious Les Perles par Puca® collection, these beads represent the pinnacle of Czech pressed glass technology combined with high-fashion aesthetic standards.

Traditional Czech glassmaking techniques are employed to create these beads, ensuring durable finishes and smooth edges that won't fray your thread. Designed by the renowned French artist Annick Puca, the Khéops® par Puca® line bridges the gap between classic beadwork and modern architectural jewelry. The metallic finish is applied with precision to maintain the sharp geometric silhouette of the triangle while offering a luxurious depth of color that mimics genuine metalwork.

• Dual-hole design for complex structural integrity
• Precision-pressed Czech glass for uniform dimensions
• Compatible with the entire Puca® jewelry system
• Versatile geometric shape for 3D beadwork

The mathematical precision of these beads allows them to nestle perfectly against other shapes in the range, such as the petal-like Amos® par Puca® or the curved Arcos® par Puca®. Because they were designed to be part of a cohesive system, you can combine various Les Perles par Puca® shapes to create intricate mandalas, floral motifs, or sleek contemporary necklaces. This interoperability is what sets the French-designed collection apart in the world of professional jewelry making.

For a striking contrast, pair with rich teal or deep turquoise accents to highlight the warm, earthy undertones of the copper coating. The Jet Copper finish also harmonizes beautifully with bronze or cream palettes for a more understated, vintage-inspired look. When building complex layers, the dark core of the glass beads provides excellent visual weight and stability to the overall composition.

For best results, we recommend using S-lon FIRE thread for maximum strength and security in your woven structures, paired with beading needles size 10-12. Considering the 0.8 mm hole size, this setup allows for multiple thread passes through the bead, which is often required for the complex bead weaving patterns and tutorials available for this collection. If you prefer a more flexible drape, the nylon N-series threads (0.11 mm) also provide excellent performance and a wide range of color matching possibilities with S-lon thread alternatives.

Advanced jewelry techniques like circular peyote or the right-angle weave are greatly enhanced by the inclusion of these triangular elements. The Khéops® par Puca® beads act as perfect cornerstones or fillers in beadweaving tutorials, enabling creators to build volume and texture that single-hole beads cannot achieve. Whether you are crafting a delicate bracelet or a bold statement piece, these beads offer the reliability and elegance required for high-end artisanal jewelry.
