Minos® par Puca® N. 112 - Opaque Beige Bronze

Opaque Beige Bronze finishes on these cylindrical elements provide a sophisticated, metallic sheen suitable for high-end jewelry components. Each 3 x 2.5 mm glass bead features a generous 0.8 mm hole, engineered for precision in multi-strand layouts and complex weaving patterns where hole consistency is paramount. Professional designers value the tight tolerances of these Czech-manufactured pieces, which ensure seamless stacking and uniform alignment in geometric beadwork.

French bead artist Annick Puca designed this collection to offer a modular system where different shapes interact flawlessly within a single piece. The compact size of these beads makes them indispensable as structural accents when used alongside larger components like Arcos® par Puca® or the petal-shaped Amos® par Puca®. This unique interplay between French aesthetic vision and traditional Czech glassmaking results in a versatile bead that bridges the gap between classic and contemporary styles.

Advanced bead weaving techniques such as the right-angle weave or circular netting benefit significantly from the rounded edges of the Minos shape, which prevents thread fraying during tensioning. For a striking contrast, pair with deep teal shades, or create a warm, opulent look by combining them with rich gold and crystal clear accents. When working with these beads, we recommend using S-lon FIRE or nylon N-series threads with classic beading needles size 10-12 to achieve the necessary durability for bracelets and necklaces that require multiple thread passes through the bead.
