Matubo™ Rulla N. 115 - Crystal Green Lined

The tradition of glassmaking in Northern Bohemia has evolved over centuries, blending ancient craftsmanship with modern innovation to create unique shapes like the cylindrical Rulla. These Matubo™ Rulla beads are manufactured in the heart of the Czech Republic using high-quality glass, continuing a legacy of excellence that jewelry makers worldwide trust for their most intricate projects. The cylindrical form with two parallel holes allows for precise alignment, making them a staple in advanced bead weaving techniques where symmetry is key. A 10 g package contains approximately 96 beads, though the exact count is approximate and depends on the specific weight of the glass batch.

• Ideal for creating seamless flat textures in multi-row bracelets.
• Compatible with other 2-hole Czech glass beads for complex geometric designs.
• Features a vibrant green lining inside transparent crystal glass for a glowing effect.
• Precision-pressed shape ensures consistent dimensions throughout your creative work.

For a striking contrast, pair these with dark sapphire beads or keep the aesthetic fresh by combining them with Preciosa seed beads in size 10/0 or 11/0 as subtle spacers. This crystal green lined finish creates a beautiful optical depth, where the vivid green core shines through the transparent glass exterior like a captured emerald. These beads are perfect for structural patterns like the brick stitch or peyote, where the 3x5 mm dimensions provide a smooth, brick-like finish that lies perfectly flat against the skin.

Jewelry designers often use these versatile components to bridge the gap between different textures, perhaps layering them alongside Matubo SuperDuo beads in sophisticated flat bracelet patterns. For those venturing beyond traditional weaving, these beads can also be used for wire-wrapped jewelry and seasonal ornaments when used with jewelry wire. For best results with woven designs, use a beading needle size 12 with S-lon or Nymo thread, which allows for multiple thread passes through the bead hole without compromising the integrity of the strand.
