#2, 5mm Czech Bugle Bead, Metallic Gold Iris

#2, 5mm Czech Bugle Bead, Metallic Gold Iris

Bugle Beads are thin, smooth tubular glass beads used for beaded fringe, embroidery, costumes design, jewelry, incredible art pieces and much more. They can be strung, sewn on or glued to many different materials. Due to the nature of this product and how the glass is cut, each Bugle Bead will differ slightly in length and/or width; they are occasionally not uniform. I would always have either an emery board or a metal file on my bead desk to file the edges of the bugle beads till they were smooth. To get this color and have it be true, a certain amount of Gold is needed to make this color. This is why these beads are a bit more expensive, but totally worth it. There are approximately 1,380 beads per hank for a #2, 5mm bugle bead.

• $19.25 per hank

• $180.00 for 14 hanks (1/2 kilo)
