TOHO - Takumi Large-hole 11/0 N. 713 - Rainbow Crystal/Lt. Capri

Iridescent blue tones reminiscent of the Mediterranean sea define these premium Japanese glass beads. Originating from the renowned TOHO workshops in Japan, these Takumi Large-hole seed beads represent the pinnacle of manufacturing precision, offering a level of uniformity that professional designers rely on for intricate beadwork. The stunning finish captures light from every angle, making them a standout choice for high-end jewelry projects.

The innovative Takumi design features a significantly larger interior hole compared to standard 11/0 rounds, allowing for multiple thread passes without the risk of breaking the glass. This makes them an indispensable choice for complex woven structures like the peyote stitch, brick stitch, or detailed loom projects where structural integrity is paramount. Designers will appreciate how the consistent shape ensures that every row of stitching remains perfectly straight and professional.

Integrating these Rainbow Crystal/Lt. Capri beads into your palette introduces a subtle shimmer that shifts with the light. For a sophisticated, multi-dimensional texture, pair them with other TOHO shapes such as Treasures, Demi Rounds, or Bugle beads, which are all engineered to work in perfect harmony. The light blue and rainbow hues are particularly effective in oceanic or celestial-themed designs, providing a luminous quality that is difficult to achieve with standard finishes.

Since 1950, TOHO has upheld a tradition of excellence, ensuring that every bead in your 5 g pack is virtually identical in size and shape. This dedication to quality control eliminates the need for culling and reduces waste in your studio. Whether you are crafting delicate earrings or a statement necklace, these Japanese treasures provide the consistent quality needed to elevate your jewelry from simple handmade crafts to professional-grade artistry.
