Matubo™ Round 8/0 - N. 220 - Chrysolite Mat

Chrysolite Mat Matubo™ Round 8/0 beads are engineered with exceptional consistency and tight tolerances, making them a staple for professional bead weavers. The generous 1.2 mm hole allows for multiple thread passes through the bead without compromising the integrity of the glass. These high-quality beads are specifically designed to provide a more uniform alternative to traditional seed beads, ensuring that your patterns remain symmetrical and precise.

Craftsmanship defines these Czech glass beads, which are pressed from premium Preciosa glass by the renowned Matubo workshop. Unlike standard seed beads, these offer a refined shape that ensures a flat, smooth surface when used in peyote stitch or loom work. The production process prioritizes surface uniformity, making them ideal for high-end jewelry making where every detail counts.

Precision in sizing is vital when you use Matubo GemDuo beads in complex geometric patterns. These 8/0 rounds serve as the perfect spacers or structural accents, filling gaps with a soft, diffused glow thanks to their matte finish. Their slightly larger size compared to 10/0 or 11/0 beads makes them excellent for creating texture and depth in multi-layered beadwork designs.

• Consistent 3.1 mm diameter for uniform weaving
• Large 1.2 mm hole for multiple passes
• Durable matte etched surface finish
• Premium Czech glass material

Beautifully complements light aqua or aquamarine tones for a refreshing, spring-inspired palette, or you can pair them with rose pink for a vibrant floral contrast. The soft lime hue of these matte green beads acts as a versatile bridge between bold neons and subtle pastels, offering a sophisticated look that avoids the harshness of high-gloss finishes.

For best results, use Nymo thread with beading needles size 10-12 to achieve secure tension. For more demanding structural designs that require high durability, choose S-lon FIRE to withstand the friction of intricate bead weaving. The smooth interior of the hole prevents thread fraying even during complex jewelry projects.

Advanced floral motifs come to life when you combine these Matubo Ginko beads and 8/0 rounds in delicate leaf compositions. Whether you are creating a statement necklace or a simple bracelet, the pressed glass quality ensures a professional result every time. Each 5 g pack contains approximately 150 beads, providing ample material for intricate borders or accent fringes.
