Chilli Preciosa N. 28 - Black Opaque, Granite Copper

Curved surfaces and gap-free patterns are often difficult to achieve in bead weaving. Using Chilli® par Puca® beads allows you to solve these spatial challenges with an organic, wing-like shape that curves naturally around the wrist or neck. These two-hole beads provide the necessary structure for modern, architectural designs while maintaining a fluid, tactile feel in your finished jewelry making projects.

Produced from premium Czech glass, this specific Granite Copper finish features a mottled metallic splatter over a Black Opaque base, creating a look of weathered stone or antique metal. These components were designed by French artist Annick Puca to integrate seamlessly into complex patterns, and they work beautifully when paired with Preciosa Twin beads to create festive Christmas snowflakes or geometric stars.

• Innovative two-hole design for complex 3D jewelry structures
• Unique elongated shape for nested and ruffled patterns
• Rich mottled copper finish over durable Czech glass
• Ideal for bracelets, earrings, and architectural beadwork
• Designed by Annick Puca for high-end artisan designs

Mixing different geometries opens up endless creative possibilities for your next wearable art project. You can achieve a unique, undulating texture by weaving these shapes alongside Preciosa Farfalle beads in layered bracelets or statement necklaces. For a striking contrast, pair these copper tones with deep teal or turquoise, or keep the palette warm and earthy by adding bronze accents to highlight the metallic finish.

Versatility is the hallmark of the Chilli® par Puca® collection, as these beads can be combined with other members of the family like Arcos® or Minos® to build intricate 3D structures. Whether you are a beginner looking for an easy way to add dimension or a master weaver creating gallery-quality pieces, these Preciosa glass components offer the reliability and aesthetic depth required for professional results.
