Tinos® par Puca® N. 17 - Metallic Mat Blue

Finding the right component to bridge the gap between complex geometric shapes can be a challenge for even the most experienced designers. These metallic matte blue Tinos® par Puca® beads offer the perfect solution with their unique trapezoid profile and dual-hole alignment. By providing two points of contact, they stabilize your bead weaving structures, preventing the twisting and sagging that often occurs with standard single-hole shapes.

Crafted from premium Czech pressed glass, these 4 x 10 mm beads are part of the prestigious Les Perles par Puca® collection. Designed in France by Annick Puca, they embody a sophisticated aesthetic that blends traditional European craftsmanship with modern, interlocking geometry. The matte finish provides a velvety texture that softens the metallic sheen, making them ideal for high-end fashion accessories.

• Precisely drilled two-hole design for stable structural integrity.
• Uniform size and shape essential for professional-grade jewelry making.
• Designed to interlock seamlessly with the entire Puca® system.
• Slightly tapered edges facilitate smooth curves in bracelet and necklace designs.

Versatility is at the heart of this collection, as these beads are specifically engineered to combine with other shapes such as Amos® par Puca® and Arcos® par Puca®. Because the hole spacing is consistent across the brand, you can experiment with complex 3D patterns and mosaics without worrying about misalignment or uneven tension in your thread.

Beautifully complements light aqua or aquamarine tones for a serene, oceanic gradient, while a neutral accent of crystal clear can add a touch of brilliance to the deep blue finish. Whether you are creating a statement collar or a delicate wristband, the rich denim-like hue of these beads provides a versatile foundation for various color palettes.

Achieving the best results in your DIY jewelry projects requires the right tools to match these high-quality glass components. We recommend using beading needles size 10-12 paired with a durable polyethylene thread like S-lon FIRE. This combination is thin enough to allow for multiple thread passes through the bead holes, ensuring your finished piece is both flexible and strong enough to withstand daily wear.
