Matubo™ Rulla N. 34 - Olivine

Tired of inconsistent bead shapes ruining the clean lines of your geometric patterns? These 3x5mm Matubo™ Rulla beads provide the perfect solution with their highly uniform cylinder shape and precisely drilled two-hole system. Unlike standard rounds, these Czech glass components stack perfectly, allowing you to create flat, woven surfaces with professional-grade structural integrity and a smooth, tactile finish.

Olivine green offers a lush, organic vibe that brings a touch of nature to any jewelry making project. While this specific shade carries a vibrant emerald-like glow, it beautifully complements deep wine or burgundy for a striking contrast, or forest green and olive tones for a harmonious, monochromatic look. Incorporating a neutral accent like jet black can also sharpen the design, making the transparent glass pop against a darker background.

Achieving complex, multi-layered textures is effortless when you combine these cylinders with Matubo SuperDuo beads. The two-hole design is engineered to nestle seamlessly together, which is ideal for creating sophisticated flat bracelet patterns or structural 3D beadwork. Each 10g package provides approximately 96 beads, ensuring you have ample supply for medium-sized projects, though please note that weight is the decisive measurement for packaging.

For the best results and maximum durability in your wearable art, we recommend using S-lon thread, specifically size D for general weaving or S-lon FIRE for high-stress jewelry pieces. These beads feature a generous 0.8 mm hole, which easily accommodates beading needles size 10-12 and allows for multiple thread passes through the bead without the risk of cracking the glass. This makes them a favorite for intricate techniques where reinforcement is key.

Versatility makes the Rulla shape a staple in any designer's kit, functioning as both a primary bead and a reliable spacer. You can naturally integrate Preciosa seed beads in sizes 8/0 or 10/0 to soften the transitions between these 2-hole glass beads. Whether you are crafting a simple stringing project or a complex woven masterpiece, these Matubo beads made from Preciosa glass deliver the consistency and brilliance required for high-end artisan jewelry.
