Matubo™ Round 7/0 - N. 28 - Opal Blue Mat

Soft pastel tones and frosted textures are currently dominating the coastal-inspired jewelry scene, making these opal blue components a must-have for your creative palette. These Matubo™ Round 7/0 beads feature a velvety matte finish that diffuses light beautifully, offering a sophisticated, sea-glass alternative to traditional high-shine seed beads. Their unique 3.5mm size provides a substantial presence in bead weaving projects without the weight of larger accent beads, fitting perfectly into the design gap between standard sizes while providing a soft, frosted aesthetic that complements modern minimalist styles.

Designing with these versatile Czech glass beads allows for seamless integration into complex geometric patterns or simple, elegant stringing. Because they are manufactured with high precision by Matubo, they maintain exceptional uniformity, making them ideal for structured techniques like the cellini spiral, bead crochet, or chunky multi-strand necklaces. For a striking contrast, pair with gold metallics, or create a harmonious oceanic gradient by mixing them with turquoise and chalk white accents. These beads also function beautifully as structural spacers when you want to add texture to designs featuring Matubo SuperDuo or the smaller Matubo MiniDuo shapes.

Beading enthusiasts will appreciate the generous 1.6mm hole size, which easily accommodates multiple thread passes through the bead, even when using durable materials like S-lon or S-lon FIRE. A standard 5 g package contains approximately 115 beads, providing enough material for various accents or a focal section of a bracelet, though please note this count is an estimate as the weight is the decisive measure. Whether you are a beginner looking for manageable large hole seed beads or a professional artisan crafting intricate woven tapestries, these rounds offer the reliability and designer-grade finish required for high-end jewelry making.
