Khéops® by Puca® N. 70 - Crystal Tabac

Crystal Tabac is a sophisticated finish that blends the clarity of premium glass with a warm, metallic tobacco sheen, making these 6 x 6 mm triangle beads a staple for high-end bead weaving. Precision-engineered as part of the Les Perles par Puca® collection, these Khéops® par Puca® beads feature two parallel 0.8 mm holes, ensuring perfect alignment in complex geometric structures. Their consistent sizing and sharp angles allow for seamless stacking, which is essential for professional-grade mosaic patterns or structural jewelry design.

High-quality Czech glassmaking tradition meets French artistic vision in these beads designed by Annick Puca. The durability of the pressed glass ensures that the internal hole walls remain smooth, protecting your thread from abrasion during complex maneuvers. These triangular elements are specifically designed to nest perfectly with other shapes like Amos® par Puca®, providing a modular system for creating intricate necklaces, bracelets, and three-dimensional pendants.

To achieve the most professional results in your beadwork, we recommend using S-lon FIRE thread for its superior strength and resistance to stretching. When working with these two-hole beads, using beading needles size 10-12 with Nymo thread is ideal, as they permit multiple thread passes through the bead without stressing the glass. The 0.8 mm hole diameter is generous enough to accommodate several passes, making it perfect for reinforcing structural jewelry pieces that require stability.

Combining this warm metallic tone with other finishes can create remarkable depth in your designs. For a striking contrast, pair with jet black, or for a more harmonious look, integrate these with crystal AB tones. Gold accents also serve as a beautiful neutral companion to the Crystal Tabac finish, enhancing its natural earthy warmth and metallic highlights within the triangular facets.

Technical mastery is at the heart of the Khéops® par Puca® design, allowing them to bridge the gap between traditional beadwork and contemporary architecture. They are frequently featured in exclusive jewelry patterns and tutorials, where their geometric versatility is used to create circular motifs or curved edges alongside Arcos® par Puca®. Whether you are building a dense peyote-style cuff or a delicate lacy earring, the consistent quality of these Czech-made components ensures a professional finish every time.
