Item #: GBD-SF-IOL-03

Availability:

These fully faceted beads are cut in a Marquise shape from some of the biggest pieces of Iolite that we we've seen for a long time. The color is also the excellent blue-violet to blue-grey that is so sought after in this gemstone. While much of this stock is fairly clear, the size of the pieces make it easy to see that Iolite often has internal 'lines' in the crystal structure. It is possible that the drilled hole that goes across the tip of the bead may not be exactly level - please account for this possibility in your design. Sold individually and priced by the carat, sizes are given for reference; size ranges overlap because some drops are thinner/thicker than others.

Item #: STR-TB-FLIP

These Rectangular Flip Top tubes have lots of great features! They are made from very clear plastic, so you can see exactly what shape and color of bead is inside. They are nice for small items (seed beads, beads up to about 8mm or metal findings).

Flip tops make it easy to dispense just the number of beads that you want at a time. The tops fit snugly in the tubes and the flip portion snaps open and closed for secure control of your beads. Some people also call these containers a tic tac box. Beads are shown as an example and are not included.
