Round Beads N. 86 (5mm)

Opaque ivory tones merge with earthy brown speckles in these unique round beads, offering a sophisticated organic aesthetic for any designer. Crafted by the renowned Rutkovsky family, these beads embody the traditional Czech glassmaking heritage that has defined the industry for centuries. The specific finish provides a natural, stone-like appearance while retaining the durability and precision of high-quality glass jewelry supplies.

Working with these 5 mm round beads allows for versatile applications in both modern and classic jewelry layouts. Their uniform shape and smooth opaque surface make them an excellent choice for textured strand necklaces or as accents in complex beadweaving projects. The ivory and spotted pattern adds a touch of vintage charm to earthy, bohemian-inspired collections.

• Perfect for multi-strand bracelets and boho necklaces.
• Compatible with size 8/0 or 10/0 Preciosa seed beads.
• Features a durable pressed glass finish for long-lasting wear.
• Hand-pressed in small batches to ensure artisanal quality.

Traditional Czech pressed glass techniques ensure that each bead possesses a consistent hole size and structural integrity. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, these handmade Czech glass pieces undergo a rigorous cooling process that prevents cracking and ensures the vibrancy of the ivory spotted finish. This attention to detail is what distinguishes authentic Rutkovsky production from standard commercial beads.

Combining these beads with metallic spacers or natural gemstones creates a high-end look suitable for boutique jewelry lines. Because the color is fused into the glass rather than just surface-coated, the spotted finish remains resilient during daily wear. Whether you are designing minimalist earrings or intricate woven masterpieces, these pressed glass beads provide the reliable foundation needed for professional craftsmanship.
