TOHO - Round 8/0 N. 154 - Trans-rainbow Crystal

Crystal clear beads with a shimmering rainbow finish provide a versatile base for any jewelry designer's palette. Beautifully complements soft white opal or gold accents for an elegant look. What I love about these TOHO Round 8/0 beads is their exceptional uniformity, ensuring that every piece created with peyote stitch or brick stitch has a clean, professional appearance. These Japanese glass beads are manufactured with incredible precision, making them a staple for those who appreciate consistent quality in their hand-crafted designs.

Jewelry techniques like macramé and bead weaving are much easier with these beads because of their large hole size of 1.3 mm. This feature allows for multiple thread passes or the use of thicker cords, which is perfect when you want to incorporate Matubo™ SuperDuo beads into your patterns as a high-quality alternative to traditional seed beads. A 10 g package contains approximately 400 pieces, offering a generous amount for creating intricate multi-layered necklaces or several delicate bracelets without needing a traditional beading needle.

Adding a touch of iridescence to your work is simple when you pair these crystal beads with Czech fire polished beads for a brilliant, light-catching effect. Because they are designed to work perfectly with other Japanese shapes, you can easily combine these with Treasure, Demi Round, or Bugle beads to add complex textures and dimensions to your unique creations. This larger 8/0 size is especially popular for beginners due to its manageable scale and the ease with which it integrates into herringbone or right angle weave projects.
