MATUBO NIB-BIT N. 132 - Crystal Capri Gold

Golden rays seem to dance across the surface of these unique wedge-shaped components, offering a luxurious metallic glow to any artisan project. These Matubo™ Nib-Bit beads feature a clever 2-hole design that allows for intricate structural work and three-dimensional beadweaving. The Crystal Capri Gold finish provides a rich, warm brilliance that elevates simple patterns into high-end fashion statements.

Geometric precision defines the wedge shape, making them an essential choice for creating circular motifs or curved edges in sophisticated necklaces. When designing complex medallions, you can use Preciosa seed beads in sizes like 10/0 to fill the gaps between the wider ends of the Nib-Bits, ensuring a smooth and professional finish. The 6x5mm size is perfectly balanced to provide volume without overwhelming the delicate nature of the jewelry.

Crystal glass forms the high-quality core of these Czech glass beads, ensuring durability and a depth of color that only traditional glassmaking techniques can achieve. For a striking contrast, pair with jet black beads to make the gold pop, or blend with white opal and milky tones for a soft, ethereal aesthetic. The versatility of the dual holes means they sit perfectly flat against the skin or can be angled to create architectural texture.

Architectural ornaments and holiday decorations benefit greatly from the sturdy nature of these glass components. These beads can also be used for wire-wrapped jewelry and ornaments, and for best results, we recommend using jewelry wire to maintain the desired shape of your sculpture. Because the hole size is 0.8 mm, this material provides the necessary strength while fitting comfortably through both parallel channels.

Masterful beadweaving often requires combining different shapes to achieve the right flow and rhythm. Try incorporating Czech fire polished beads as sparkling accents at the tips of a Nib-Bit starburst for added dimension. A package contains approximately 30 beads.
