Matubo™ Round 7/0 - N. 79 - Opal Red

Are you struggling to find the perfect balance between size and functionality for your jewelry projects? These large-hole Matubo™ Round 7/0 beads provide the ideal solution, offering a generous 1.6 mm internal diameter that simplifies the most complex stringing tasks. Unlike standard seed beads, the unique pressing technology used for these Czech glass beads ensures a highly consistent shape and size, which is essential for achieving a professional finish in geometric patterns or structural beadwork.

• Generous 1.6 mm hole allows for multiple thread passes through the bead.
• Premium Opal Red finish offers a vibrant, milky glow.
• Pressed glass technology ensures superior uniformity compared to cut seed beads.
• Perfect size for Kumihimo, macrame, and crochet beading.

The versatility of these round beads makes them a staple for contemporary techniques like Kumihimo or chunky macrame bracelets where thicker cords are required. They integrate seamlessly into complex woven designs and pairs beautifully with Matubo SuperDuo or the smaller Matubo MiniDuo to create varied textures and dimensions. Because the hole is so wide, you can easily use beading needles size 10-12 with S-lon or Nymo threads for intricate weaving without the frustration of blocked holes.

For a striking contrast, pair with jet black accents, or create a sophisticated, warm look by mixing them with gold or neutral grey tones. This Opal Red shade captures light beautifully, providing a soft translucency that adds depth to necklaces and earrings. Whether you are using a classic loom or experimenting with freeform peyote stitch, these 3.5mm seed beads deliver consistent results that elevate your handmade jewelry to boutique quality.

Each 5 g package contains approximately 115 beads, though the weight is the decisive factor as the exact count can vary slightly based on the glass coating. These beads are an excellent choice for beginners due to their manageable size and easy-to-thread holes. By choosing Matubo™ Round 7/0, you are investing in centuries of Czech glassmaking tradition, ensuring your creations remain timeless and durable for years to come.
