Matubo™ Rulla N. 10 - Vega On Jet

Vega on Jet finish creates a sophisticated, deep metallic luster that shifts between dark wine and shimmering violet undertones on a solid black base. These Matubo™ Rulla beads feature a precise cylindrical shape measuring 3x5 mm, offering a sleek, architectural alternative to standard round beads in multi-row patterns. The two-hole configuration is engineered for perfect alignment, allowing the beads to sit flush against one another for a seamless, fabric-like finish in advanced jewelry making compositions.

Craftsmanship is at the heart of the Matubo production process, utilizing high-quality glass sourced from the renowned North Bohemian region. These Matubo beads made from Preciosa glass provide exceptional hole consistency with a diameter of 0.8 mm, which is critical for complex weaving where multiple thread passes through the bead are required. Integrating Preciosa seed beads as spacers between these cylinders can help maintain flexibility in your designs while adding delicate texture and spacing.

Bead weaving enthusiasts often choose this cylinder shape for its unique ability to create structured jewelry pieces with high dimensional stability. The parallel holes are spaced precisely to match other multi-hole components, ensuring that your tension remains even throughout the project. Whether used in peyote stitch, herringbone, or loom work, the Matubo™ Rulla provides a modern, geometric aesthetic that elevates traditional Czech beadwork to a professional level.

Designing with this dark, iridescent palette allows for versatile color combinations that range from moody and dramatic to bright and contrasting. For a striking contrast, pair with siam red accents to make the metallic violet tones of the Vega coating pop. You can also explore complex patterns by combining these cylinders with Matubo SuperDuo beads to create flat bracelet patterns that play with varying heights and textures within a single row.

Professional results depend on using the right materials, and we recommend using beading needles size 10-12 with S-lon or S-lon FIRE thread for maximum durability in high-wear items like bracelets. Each 10 gram package contains approximately 96 beads, though the count is approximate as the weight remains the decisive factor in every pack. These Czech glass beads are essential for any designer looking to push the boundaries of dimensional bead weaving with reliable, masterfully crafted components.
