Matubo™ SEED 10/0 - N. 52 - Crystal Copper Lined

The tradition of glassmaking in Northern Bohemia stretches back centuries, where artisans mastered the art of capturing light within tiny vessels of glass. These Matubo™ Seed Beads 10/0 are born from that rich heritage, utilizing high-quality glass to create beadweaving components of exceptional uniformity and depth. Every bead represents a legacy of craftsmanship that has made the Czech Republic the world leader in glass ornamentation.

This specific variant features a transparent crystal glass exterior that allows the warm, metallic copper lining to glow from within. The 2.1mm size is a versatile choice for both intricate bead embroidery and detailed jewelry patterns, offering a sophisticated alternative to standard round beads. Their precise shape ensures that your patterns remain straight and professional, whether you are a beginner or a seasoned professional artist.

For nature-inspired designs, these copper-lined treasures pair beautifully with Matubo Ginko beads, creating organic textures that mimic autumnal foliage or sunset reflections. This combination is particularly effective in layered necklace designs or sculptural earrings where handcrafted jewelry requires a touch of metallic warmth to balance earthy tones.

• Uniform 2.1mm size for consistent, professional patterns
• Large 0.9mm hole allows for multiple thread passes through the bead
• Premium metallic lining provides a durable, radiant finish
• Perfectly compatible with other Matubo shape beads

To ensure the longevity of your 10/0 Czech beads, especially in demanding techniques like peyote stitch, we recommend using Nymo thread along with beading needles size 10-12. The generous hole size of these Matubo™ Seed Beads 10/0 facilitates easy passage, making them ideal for complex structures where the needle must enter the same bead several times.

For a striking contrast, pair these copper metallic beads with jet black or deep emerald tones to let the inner core truly shine. A 5 g package contains approximately 460 beads, providing ample material for accents in larger projects featuring Czech fire polished beads or standalone delicate bracelets. These 2.1mm seed beads remain a staple for any designer seeking the perfect blend of traditional glass and modern metallic finishes.
