Matubo™ Round 6/0 - N. 17 - Opaque Violet

Frustrated by irregular seed bead shapes that ruin the precision of your beadwork? Matubo™ Round 6/0 beads offer the perfect solution with their exceptional consistency and oversized holes. These Czech glass beads are specifically designed to provide a uniform look for structured designs, ensuring your professional jewelry making projects maintain a clean, high-end finish every time. The Opaque Violet shade (color code 23020) provides a rich, solid depth that adds a sophisticated pop of color to any handmade accessory.

Amethyst-inspired violet tones bring a regal touch to any palette, making these beads a favorite for both modern and vintage aesthetics. For a unique interlocking texture in your seed bead patterns, consider incorporating Preciosa Farfalle beads into your next layout. This violet finish is remarkably versatile, beautifully complements wine or burgundy shades for a harmonious monochromatic look, or creates a striking contrast when paired with peridot green for a bold, contemporary statement.

Designing intricate floral or geometric motifs becomes effortless when you incorporate varying shapes into your work. You can easily add dimensional variety by using Preciosa Pip beads as decorative accents alongside these rounds. Each 10 g package contains approximately 140 beads, giving you plenty of material for substantial necklaces or multiple bracelets. These Matubo beads are made from high-quality glass, ensuring lasting color fastness and durability for all your artistic endeavors.

Achieving professional results requires the right foundation for your stringing or weaving projects. To ensure your work remains secure and flexible, we recommend using S-lon thread (standard S-lon for versatility or S-lon FIRE for maximum strength) paired with beading needles size 10-12. The generous 1.6 mm hole allows for multiple thread passes through the bead, making these 6/0 seed beads ideal for complex techniques like the peyote stitch or brick stitch without the risk of needle breakage.
