MATUBO GEMDUO N. 339 - Jet Full Marea

The iridescent glow of the Jet Full Marea finish creates a captivating play of light, reflecting brilliant flashes of gold, magenta, and copper over a deep black base. These 8x5mm diamond-shaped components are a staple for designers seeking a luxurious, metallic aesthetic in their handmade collections. Their unique back-side flat profile and pointed top add a sophisticated three-dimensional texture to any flat surface or woven structure.

Geometric elegance defines these two-hole diamond beads, which are essential for creating complex structural jewelry and intricate floral motifs. Designers often combine these with Matubo SuperDuo beads to construct stunning star-shaped pendants or high-fashion geometric collars. The precise engineering of the dual holes allows for perfectly aligned thread paths, making them a favorite for advanced bead weaving techniques.

Matubo beads made from Preciosa glass ensure remarkable consistency in both shape and hole alignment, allowing your needle to glide through with ease. Using high-quality glass from the famous Crystal Valley, these beads provide the durability required for heirloom-quality pieces. Integrating Preciosa seed beads as connecting elements in your patterns will help secure the diamond points and create smooth transitions between the larger focal components.

For a striking contrast, pair with gold or dark bronze accents to further emphasize the warm metallic highlights of the marea coating. The Jet Full Marea finish is particularly effective when used in evening wear designs, as it mimics the look of high-end peacock-colored gemstones without the weight or cost. Whether you are creating a simple stringing project or a multi-layered masterpiece, these beads bring a professional, finished look to every creation.

Working with these diamond gems opens up a world of architectural possibilities in beadwork, from dimensional earrings to substantial cuff bracelets. The 0.8 mm hole size is generous enough for multiple thread passes through the bead using S-lon or Nymo thread, ensuring your jewelry remains strong and flexible. Because they nestle together so perfectly, they are the ideal choice for creating honeycomb-style textures or modern, armor-like jewelry designs.
