MATUBO NIB-BIT N. 51 - Chalk Blue Glaze

Struggling to find the perfect geometric element that adds height and texture without overwhelming your design? This unique wedge shape solves the issue of flat, uninspiring beadwork by providing a curved, three-dimensional silhouette that fits seamlessly into circular motifs. The Matubo™ Nib-Bit is specifically engineered to bridge gaps in complex patterns, ensuring your focal pieces look professional and structurally sound.

These 6x5 mm Czech glass beads feature two parallel holes, allowing for intricate weaving paths that are impossible with standard single-hole beads. The Chalk Blue Glaze finish offers a sophisticated, mottled look reminiscent of ancient ceramics, blending soft aqua tones with earthy accents. By using Matubo SuperDuo beads alongside these wedges, you can create dense, honeycomb-like textures that catch the light from every angle.

Beautifully complements light aqua or aquamarine tones for a monochromatic look, or pair with orange hyacinth for a vibrant, high-contrast summer palette.

High-quality Matubo beads made from Preciosa glass ensure consistent sizing and smooth edges, which are essential for protecting your thread during multiple passes. The precision-pressed shape means you won't have to waste time sorting through irregular pieces, letting you focus entirely on your creative process. Incorporating Preciosa seed beads in sizes 8/0 or 10/0 as spacers between the wider ends of the Nib-Bits will help stabilize your structural beadweaving projects.

Rounded backs and tapered fronts make these beads ideal for creating petal-like surrounds for cabochons or textured beaded ropes. Whether you are a beginner exploring basic stringing or an expert mastering multi-hole geometry, the versatility of these 2-hole beads is unmatched. A package contains approximately 30 beads, providing enough material for a pair of statement earrings or a significant portion of a necklace focal.
