MATUBO NIB-BIT N. 370 - Crystal Picasso

Earthy textures and warm, honeyed tones converge in these unique wedge-shaped components, perfect for creating organic jewelry designs. Imagine a sun-drenched autumn afternoon captured in glass, where each piece reflects a rustic charm that adds depth to your handmade necklaces and earrings. The distinct two-hole design allows for intricate layering, making them a favorite for bead weavers looking to add dimension to their projects. Each 30-piece package contains approximately 30 beads, though the weight remains the decisive measurement for our high-quality Matubo™ Nib-Bit stock.

Crystal glass serves as the base for this stunning finish, providing a translucent core that glows from within under the mottled coating. These wedge beads are expertly shaped to fit perfectly into circular motifs or as decorative spacers in dimensional beadwork. They work exceptionally well when combined with Matubo SuperDuo beads to build complex, multi-layered architectural patterns that require precise alignment. Because they are Czech glass beads, you can rely on the consistency of the 6x5mm dimensions across every project.

Combining these with a neutral accent like silver or a harmonious crystal AB can create a sophisticated palette, while pairing them with a bold siam red offers a striking, fiery contrast. These beads are ideal for peyote or brick stitch techniques where their tapered shape creates natural curves in the finished piece. For the best results in your bead weaving, we recommend using Nymo thread with beading needles size 10-12 to ensure the thread passes through the bead hole smoothly even during complex maneuvers.

Precision-molded surfaces ensure consistency in every wedge bead, allowing your geometric patterns to sit flush without unsightly gaps. Many designers utilize Preciosa seed beads in sizes 8/0 or 10/0 as decorative fill between the Nib-Bits to soften transitions and add intricate detail. Whether you are crafting a boho-chic bracelet or a structured pendant, the Picasso finish provides a timeless, artisanal look that elevates any DIY jewelry project to professional standards.
