Matubo Wheel N. 3 (6 mm) - Vega On Chalk

Finding the perfect spacer that doesn't look like an afterthought can be a challenge for many jewelry designers. Matubo™ Wheel beads provide the ideal solution, offering a precise, doughnut-shaped profile that adds professional structure to your designs. These Czech glass beads are pressed with extreme accuracy, ensuring that every piece fits perfectly into your pattern without the frustration of irregular sizes often found in lower-quality components.

Sophisticated violet hues define this specific variety, featuring the unique Vega on Chalk finish that blends a soft lilac base with a subtle metallic shimmer. The 6mm diameter makes them substantial enough to stand alone in minimalist strands or serve as a textured focal point in complex beadweaving. Because they are made from high-quality Matubo™ glass, the color remains vibrant and resistant to wear, ensuring your handmade jewelry looks new for years.

Designing jewelry that looks intricate but remains easy to assemble is much simpler with the right components. The generous 1.5 mm hole is a massive benefit for those using thick stringing materials or performing multiple thread passes through the bead. You can easily combine these with Matubo SuperDuo beads to create multi-dimensional woven patterns where the wheel shape nests perfectly between the two-hole units.

• Pressed glass technology for consistent dimensions
• Large central hole perfect for S-lon FIRE and thicker cords
• Elegant Vega finish with a violet-lavender shimmer
• Authentic Czech glass craftsmanship from the Matubo™ workshop

Imagine a boho-style wrap bracelet where these violet beads are paired with earthy leather or metallic accents. Their flat, rounded edges provide a smooth tactile experience against the skin, making them a top choice for bracelets and necklaces that require comfort. For those who enjoy fine detail, try incorporating Preciosa seed beads in size 8/0 or 10/0 as decorative fillers within the central indentations of the wheel for a unique textured look.

Planning your supply list accurately is essential for any project, and these beads offer excellent value. A 10 g package contains approximately 85 beads, giving you plenty of components for several pairs of earrings or a complex woven focal piece. Since the weight is the decisive factor for the packaging, the exact count may vary slightly depending on the specific finish and density of the glass batch.

Achieving professional texture in your work is simple when you have the right materials in your kit. Whether you are using S-lon thread for a classic weave or thicker elastic for a quick-stretch project, these wheels adapt to your creative needs. Invest in the quality of Matubo™ Wheel components to ensure your handmade jewelry stands the test of time with professional-grade materials and a high-end finish.
