Matubo™ Round 8/0 - N. 166 - California Graphite

Industrial-inspired palettes and dark, moody metallics continue to dominate modern jewelry trends, making this specific shade a staple for the contemporary artisan. California Graphite offers a sophisticated, gunmetal-like sheen that provides depth and a high-end feel to both minimalist and complex designs. These Czech glass beads are manufactured with a precision that ensures consistency, allowing you to create smooth, professional textures in every piece.

• Large 1.2 mm hole allows for multiple thread passes through the bead.
• Premium Matubo™ Round 8/0 consistency for uniform patterns.
• Versatile 3.1 mm size ideal for spacers or structural weaving.
• Authentic Czech glass durability and rich metallic luster.

Integrating these elements into geometric patterns adds a bold structural element, especially when used as textural fillers for Matubo GemDuo beads. The generous hole diameter is perfect for advanced bead weaving techniques like peyote or brick stitch using high-quality S-lon or Nymo threads. For a striking contrast, pair with polished gold or maintain a sleek, monochromatic look by combining them with different shades of grey and silver.

Artistic designs inspired by nature or sharp architectural forms benefit from these beads when used alongside Matubo Ginko beads to create intricate leaf motifs or fan shapes. A 5 g package contains approximately 150 beads, though the exact count may vary slightly based on the weight of the metallic coating. This weight-based approach ensures you have the material volume needed for professional-grade jewelry making.
