Chilli Preciosa N. 101 - White Alabaster, Yellow Silk, Matt

Sun-drenched palettes and organic textures are dominating modern jewelry trends, making these unique two-hole elements an essential addition to any designer's kit. The elongated, curved silhouette of Chilli® par Puca® beads provides a dimensional quality that adds depth to flat weaves and sculptural pieces alike. Their soft yellow hue, enhanced by a matte silk finish, offers a sophisticated, understated glow that complements both contemporary and vintage-inspired aesthetics.

Pressed glass craftsmanship from the Preciosa factory ensures these components maintain the artistic integrity required for high-end jewelry design. As part of the exclusive Les Perles par Puca® collection, these beads represent a bridge between traditional Czech glassmaking heritage and modern French design. Their versatile 4x11mm shape allows them to nestle together or fan out, creating intricate patterns that mimic natural forms like flower petals or feathers.

• Unique two-hole design allows for stable and complex structural beadwork.
• Premium matte silk finish provides a tactile, high-end feel for statement pieces.
• Perfectly compatible with the entire Les Perles par Puca® bead system.
• Ideal for creating textured fringes, circular rosettes, and layered jewelry.

Creating intricate floral motifs becomes effortless when these beads are paired with Czech fire polished beads which serve as brilliant, light-catching centers for woven rosettes. The contrast between the matte surface of the yellow glass and the faceted sparkle of fire-polished elements adds a professional, multi-dimensional look to bracelets and earrings.

For best results when working with shaped glass components, we recommend using S-lon FIRE thread along with beading needles size 10-11. Because shaped beads like these often require multiple thread passes through the bead to maintain structural tension, S-lon FIRE is the ideal choice due to its extreme strength and minimal stretch.

Designing bold geometric jewelry is made simple by combining these with Preciosa Thorn beads to create sharp, dynamic edges on pendants and dangling earrings. Beautifully complements a palette of white opal or milky tones for a harmonious spring look, or pair them with jet black for a striking, high-contrast visual effect that highlights the unique pepper-like shape.
