Lipsi® par Puca® N. 86 - Dark Grey Light Mat Ab

Achieving a seamless, geometric look in bead-weaving projects can be challenging when using standard single-hole beads. These unique two-hole components provide the stability needed for complex, multi-dimensional structures in jewelry design. By offering parallel passages, they eliminate the unwanted shifting often found in intricate patterns, ensuring your handmade jewelry maintains its intended shape and professional finish.

Designed by the renowned French artist Annick Puca and manufactured following the world-class Czech glassmaking tradition, this shape is part of the interconnected Les Perles par Puca® ecosystem. The Lipsi® par Puca® oval is specifically engineered to fit perfectly alongside other designer shapes like Arcos® par Puca® and Delos® par Puca®. This modular approach allows artisans to create sophisticated, architectural jewelry pieces without the frustration of mismatched dimensions.

Dark grey matte surfaces meet a shimmering iridescent coating in this striking finish, offering a sophisticated contrast for modern aesthetics. The velvety matte texture provides a deep backdrop for the AB effect, which shifts beautifully between cool teal and deep violet tones. For a striking contrast, pair with dark sapphire beads or silver accents to highlight the metallic sheen of the finish.

Working with 2-hole beads is ideal for advanced needlework techniques including peyote stitch, right-angle weave (RAW), and complex netting. Because they are crafted from high-quality Czech glass, they feature smooth, precisely drilled holes that protect your thread from fraying during multiple thread passes through the bead. You can easily find various designer patterns and tutorials that showcase the versatility of this specific Lipsi® par Puca® shape for necklaces and bracelets.

Whether you are constructing a bold geometric focal piece or delicate chandelier earrings, the 7 x 4 mm size offers the perfect balance of visual presence and lightweight comfort. The 0.8 mm holes are generous enough for secure stringing with durable materials like S-lon FIRE, making them a reliable choice for long-lasting wearable art. Integrate these designer components into your next collection to experience the harmony of French design flair and Bohemian craftsmanship.
