Minos® par Puca® N. 117 - Metallic Mat Light Blue

Metallic matte finishes on these Minos® par Puca® beads provide a sophisticated, frosted aesthetic that bridges the gap between contemporary industrial style and classic elegance. These 3 x 2.5 mm Czech glass components are manufactured with exceptional precision, ensuring uniform 0.8 mm holes that allow for consistent multiple thread passes through the bead. Because they are designed by French artist Annick Puca, they integrate seamlessly into complex geometric structures, often acting as the perfect spacer or focal point when paired with larger shapes like Arcos® par Puca® or the petal-like Amos® par Puca®.

Czech glassmaking tradition meets Parisian flair in this collection, where high-quality pressed glass is treated with a durable matte coating for a soft-touch feel. Beautifully complements turquoise tones and chalk white accents for a serene, icy palette, or try pairing with siam red for a high-contrast, modern look. The architectural nature of these small cylinders makes them indispensable for 3D beadweaving projects where stability and close-fitting tolerances are required to maintain the structural integrity of the jewelry piece.

Jewelry wire techniques and traditional needle-work both benefit from the sturdy profile of these beads. While they are a staple in needle-and-thread weaving, they also serve as excellent accents for jewelry wire ornaments and wrapped designs. For best results, use S-lon FIRE or our N-series nylon threads to ensure the longevity of your woven creations while accommodating the 0.8 mm hole size. By utilizing the official patterns designed for the Puca® system, artisans can explore endless combinations of shapes like Delos® par Puca® to craft professional-grade necklaces and bracelets.
