TOHO - Demi Round 8/0 N. 312 - Metallic Rainbow Iris

Metallic Rainbow Iris finish on these TOHO Demi Round 8/0 beads offers a sophisticated spectrum of oil-slick hues ranging from deep violet and cobalt to emerald green and gold. The Demi Round shape is a precisely engineered, thinner version of the traditional seed bead, measuring exactly 3 mm in diameter but with a significantly lower profile. This unique geometry allows for the creation of intricate textures and refined gradients that standard round beads cannot achieve, making them a favorite for high-end fashion accents.

Consistent quality is the hallmark of Japanese glass beads manufactured by TOHO since 1950. These 8/0 seed beads feature a generous 1.3 mm hole size, designed to accommodate multiple thread passes without the risk of breakage or crowding. This high tolerance for repeat threading and exceptional uniformity makes them an essential choice for professional designers working with complex peyote stitch, brick stitch, or detailed bead embroidery where every millimeter matters.

Integration with the wider TOHO ecosystem is seamless, as these iridescent jewelry beads are designed to stack perfectly with TOHO Round, Treasure, and Bugle varieties. Using the Demi Round as a spacer or a structural element provides a sleek, low-profile finish that adds depth to herringbone or right angle weave patterns. Their flattened donut shape creates a tight, mosaic-like appearance when woven together, ensuring that your jewelry designs remain stable and structurally sound.

Traditional Japanese craftsmanship meets modern manufacturing precision in every 3 g pack, which contains approximately 90 beads. Because these are premium seed beads, the surface finish is exceptionally durable, retaining its metallic luster even under frequent wear. Whether you are accenting a delicate bracelet or building a large-scale woven necklace, these Japanese glass components provide the reliability and professional finish required for heirloom-quality creations.
