MATUBO GEMDUO N. 213 - Backlit Tequila

The rolling hills of Northern Bohemia have served as the heart of glassmaking for centuries, where local artisans perfected the art of pressing glass into intricate, repeatable shapes. These Matubo GemDuo beads emerge from this storied tradition, offering a modern geometric silhouette that honors the precision of authentic Czech craftsmanship. Every piece reflects a legacy of quality and consistency, ensuring your handmade jewelry carries the weight and brilliance of professional-grade artistry.

Glowing with a warm, sunset-like radiance, the Backlit Tequila finish provides a stunning interplay of light across the diamond-shaped facets. These 2-hole diamond beads are meticulously designed with a flat back and a raised, faceted top, allowing them to sit flush against the skin or nestle perfectly alongside Matubo MiniGemDuo beads for complex, layered textures in your beadwork. The 8x5 mm dimensions are ideal for creating structural focal points that catch the light from every angle.

For best results in your structural designs, we recommend using S-lon thread, specifically S-lon FIRE, which offers the superior abrasion resistance necessary for two-hole glass components. Pair this high-strength thread with beading needles size 10-11 to ensure smooth passage through the 0.8 mm holes, even when your pattern requires multiple thread passes through the bead to secure a complex motif.

Imagine these radiant pieces as the centerpiece of a sophisticated bracelet or as subtle accents when combined with Czech fire polished beads to add extra sparkle to your woven borders. Whether you are exploring circular peyote stitch or complex architectural netting, these premium glass beads provide the versatility needed for high-end jewelry design. The possibilities for unique, light-filled creations are truly endless with this iconic Matubo shape and its mesmerizing iridescent glow.
