TOHO - Takumi Large-hole 11/0 N. 723 - Silver-lined Frosted Lt. Topaz

Silver-Lined Frosted Lt. Topaz (22F) combines a warm, honey-hued core with a delicate frosted exterior to create a sophisticated, diffused glow. These TOHO Takumi beads represent the pinnacle of Japanese glass craftsmanship, where the etched surface provides a soft matte texture while the internal silver lining adds a hidden depth. Because they are manufactured with extreme precision, every bead offers the consistent quality and uniformity that professional designers rely on for intricate structural beadwork.

• Optimized for multi-pass thread work with a 0.9 mm hole, significantly larger than standard rounds.
• Identical dimensions ensure perfectly aligned rows in peyote stitch and brick stitch designs.
• Premium Japanese glass is resistant to fading, ensuring your jewelry maintains its character for years.
• Ideal for combining with other Preciosa Drop beads to create textured, hanging elements.

Soft amber tones in a frosted finish pair exquisitely with neutral accents like chalk white or create a rich, regal look when used alongside sparkling Preciosa Bicone beads. For a more dramatic visual impact, consider a striking contrast by pairing this frosted topaz with deep siam red or cool grey tones. These Japanese glass beads are particularly favored for loom work and herringbone techniques where maintaining a flat, smooth surface is paramount for the overall design integrity.

Achieving professional results in beadweaving requires the right tools, so we recommend using Nymo thread and fine beading needles (size 10-12) to navigate the generous internal diameter. The Takumi line is specifically engineered to allow for multiple thread passes without the risk of bead breakage, a critical feature for complex geometric patterns. By utilizing the manufacturing precision of TOHO, these beads ensure that your finished jewelry maintains its intended geometry and durability over time.
