Samos® par Puca® N. 206 - 23980/29064 (Polynesian Burgundy)

Finding the perfect structural element that bridges the gap between round and angular shapes in your beadwork can be a significant challenge. These oval-shaped Samos® par Puca® beads provide a smooth, pebble-like contour that fits flawlessly into complex 3D patterns, ensuring your jewelry pieces maintain a professional and fluid silhouette. By utilizing the dual-hole design, you can achieve superior stability in your woven projects compared to standard single-hole alternatives.

Polynesian Burgundy is a rich, shimmering shade that brings a touch of exotic elegance to any palette, featuring a metallic luster that catches the light from every angle. These Czech glass beads are a cornerstone of the French-designed collection by Annick Puca, intended to be used as a structural frame for larger components. For instance, they work exceptionally well when used as a Cabochon® par Puca® surround, hugging the circular center to create a sunburst or floral effect.

The beauty of the Les Perles par Puca® system lies in its absolute interconnectivity. Because every shape is designed by the same artist, your Samos® par Puca® beads will align perfectly with other geometry like Arcos® par Puca®, Minos® par Puca®, or Télos® par Puca®. This geometric harmony eliminates the guesswork in design, allowing you to focus on the creative flow of your project rather than worrying about mismatched dimensions.

• Dual parallel holes for advanced bead weaving stability and symmetry.
• Unique oval shape perfect for creating flower petals or circular motifs.
• Premium Czech pressed glass with a durable, high-quality metallic finish.
• Seamless integration with the entire Puca® bead system for limitless design.

To achieve the best tension and durability in your woven ornaments, we recommend using high-quality jewelry wire or specialized S-lon FIRE thread. The smooth holes of these 5x7 mm beads allow for clean thread paths, which is essential when building tiered necklaces or complex bracelets that require structural integrity. Because the glass is pressed with precision, the holes remain consistent across the entire batch.

For a striking contrast, pair this Polynesian Burgundy finish with emerald green accents to make the wine tones pop, or use amethyst purple for a harmonious, regal look. By incorporating Preciosa seed beads in size 11/0 as fillers between the larger shapes, you can easily transition between different Puca designs while maintaining a consistent color story throughout your artisan jewelry. These beads are an essential addition for any designer seeking to master the French style of bead weaving.
