Lipsi® par Puca® N. 197 - Metal Shine Garnet

Precision-engineered 7 x 4 mm dimensions and dual 0.8 mm parallel holes define these Lipsi® par Puca® beads, offering professional artisans exceptional stability in complex structures. The metallic finish provides a consistent, high-end shimmer that elevates beadweaving projects from simple stringing to architectural jewelry art. These components are essential for creating professional-grade necklaces and bracelets that require precise hole alignment and uniform shape.

Originating from the creative vision of French designer Annick Puca and the legendary craftsmanship of Czech glassmaking, these beads are part of an interconnected system. The unique geometry of Lipsi® par Puca® allows them to integrate seamlessly with other shapes such as Amos® par Puca® or Arcos® par Puca®, facilitating the creation of intricate, fabric-like beadwork. This French design heritage ensures that every project achieves a sophisticated, Parisian aesthetic.

For best results when executing high-tension designs, we recommend using S-lon FIRE polyethylene thread for its superior strength and minimal stretch, paired with beading needles size 10-12 to ensure smooth multiple thread passes through the bead. The 0.8 mm hole is generous enough to accommodate structural reinforcement while maintaining the bead's structural integrity, making them a favorite for complex 3D jewelry tutorials.

The deep, lustrous tones of Metal Shine Garnet offer a sophisticated palette for evening accessories and statement pieces. This color beautifully complements orange hyacinth for a warm, autumnal glow, while pairing with neutral accents like crystal clear creates a striking modern contrast. Whether you are following a specific Puca tutorial or developing your own patterns, the consistent color-fastness of these Czech glass beads ensures a professional finish every time.
