Tinos® par Puca® N. 21 - Opaque Blue Turquoise

Vibrant coastal vibes and geometric precision merge in these unique trapezoid glass beads. When creating contemporary beadweaving pieces, the 2-hole configuration of the Tinos® par Puca® allows for intricate, multi-dimensional structures that traditional seed beads cannot achieve. Their elongated shape provides a architectural foundation for jewelry that demands clean lines and professional symmetry.

Part of the prestigious Les Perles par Puca® line, these elements are the brainchild of French designer Annick Puca and are meticulously produced in the heart of the Czech Republic. This collaboration brings together Parisian chic and world-renowned glassmaking tradition, ensuring each bead is uniform and of the highest quality for professional jewelry makers and enthusiasts alike.

• Dual-hole design for superior architectural stability in woven patterns
• Interchangeable geometry that fits seamlessly with other Puca® shapes
• Solid opaque finish with a classic glossy luster
• Ideal for creating textured mosaics and layered jewelry designs

The slim profile and clean lines of the 4x10mm Tinos® par Puca® make them a staple for fans of the specialized designer bead system. These beads are specifically designed to work together, allowing designers to build complex mosaics or floral motifs by combining them with Amos® par Puca® or Minos® shapes. The interlocking nature of these components encourages creativity without compromising the structural integrity of the final piece.

For a striking contrast, pair with warm metallic accents like copper or bronze to bring out the depth of the Opaque Blue Turquoise.

Utilizing S-lon FIRE or high-quality nylon beading threads (N-series) ensures that your geometric projects remain firm and maintain their intended shape over time. Because the holes are 0.8 mm, you can easily manage multiple thread passes through the bead using beading needles size 10-12, which is essential for secure, professional-grade jewelry. These beads are excellent for advanced techniques where precision is paramount.

Incorporate these into a statement collar necklace or a pair of lightweight chandelier earrings to follow current jewelry trends. Numerous patterns and tutorials are available for this system, making it easy to experiment with layering Czech glass beads in ways that emphasize modern texture and form. Whether you are following a specific tutorial or designing your own masterpiece, these beads offer endless possibilities.
