TOHO - Round 11/0 N. 935 - Transparent Siam Ruby

Molten glass from Japan is transformed into the highly precise TOHO Round 11/0 seed beads, celebrated for their exceptional structural integrity. The Transparent Siam Ruby finish allows light to dance through the core, creating a deep, jewel-like glow that only high-quality Japanese glass can provide. These beads represent a legacy of manufacturing precision that has made them a staple for professional jewelry artists worldwide.

Precision manufacturing since 1950 ensures that every single bead in this 10 g pack maintains a perfect diameter. This consistent quality and uniformity are vital for advanced bead weaving where structural symmetry is non-negotiable, preventing the warping often found in lesser quality glass. The identical dimensions of each bead allow for crisp, clean lines in every project.

Designers favoring the peyote stitch, loom work, or brick stitch will appreciate the signature large hole design of these round beads. The 0.8 mm inner diameter comfortably accommodates multiple passes of thread, making these beads ideal for complex geometric structures and durable jewelry builds. This engineering detail makes them significantly easier to thread than standard seed beads.

Vibrant red tones reminiscent of precious gemstones make color code 5B a versatile choice for both contemporary and traditional designs. Whether used in delicate embroidery or as the foundation for a statement necklace, the clarity of the Transparent finish adds a professional, high-end look. The rich ruby hue provides a classic aesthetic that pairs beautifully with metallic accents.

Creating harmonious textures is effortless when you mix different TOHO shapes to achieve depth and visual interest. These Japanese glass beads are designed to work perfectly with Treasure, Demi Round, and Bugle beads, ensuring your handcrafted pieces stand out with professional precision. The combination of these shapes allows for intricate detailing and a refined finish in any artisanal creation.
