Minos® par Puca® N. 12 - Pastel Emerald

Precise cylindrical geometry defines the Minos® par Puca®, offering a compact 3x2.5mm profile that serves as a foundational element in complex bead weaving. These small glass beads are engineered with a generous 0.8mm hole, ensuring high thread compatibility even when executing intricate architectural patterns designed by French artist Annick Puca. The technical consistency of these components allows for predictable stacking behavior, making them indispensable for jewelry makers who value geometric precision.

High-quality Czech glass beads are renowned for their color fastness, and this Pastel Emerald finish provides a sophisticated, soft matte aesthetic that mimics natural stone. The pressed glass manufacturing process guarantees strict tolerances in size and shape, ensuring that every Minos® par Puca® bead sits perfectly within a design. This reliability is the hallmark of the Les Perles par Puca® collection, bridging the gap between artistic French design and traditional Czech craftsmanship.

The unique shape of Minos® par Puca® is part of a modular system specifically created to integrate with other shapes like Arcos® par Puca® and Delos® par Puca®. This interlocking capability allows for the creation of seamless, fabric-like jewelry components where each designer glass bead fits perfectly into the next. These Minos® par Puca® beads are often used as spacers or structural connectors in sophisticated multi-hole beadwork tutorials.

Beautifully complements peridot green tones for a harmonious leafy look, or try pairing them with jet black for a modern, high-contrast jewelry piece. The emerald green hue is versatile enough to act as a primary focal color or a subtle accent in more complex, earthy color palettes.

For best results in professional jewelry projects, we recommend using S-lon FIRE polyethylene thread for maximum strength and durability. When working with these 3mm cylinders, beading needles size 10-12 are ideal, allowing for multiple thread passes through the bead hole without compromising the structural integrity of your weaving. Whether you are following an official Puca pattern or creating an original design, the consistency of these Minos® par Puca® beads ensures a professional finish every time.
