Description

Transparent Amethyst is a good option for bead artists looking for a vibrant purple that is color-fast. Using this color next to an aqua or turquoise blue, will emphasize the purple. It tends to blend with -0872 Transparent Light Amethyst; if you need a strong contrast, look for an opaque amethyst or white-lined light amethyst.

Transparent glass allows light to pass through the bead, liked stained glass. This makes transparent beads appear extra shiny. The beads are see-through, so the color of the stringing material can affect the appearance - transparent beads strung on black thread will look darker than the same beads on white thread.

Seed beads are a very popular and time-honored option for any bead artist, whether your art is worn on the powwow trail, displayed in a gallery, or adorning a person. They are fairly uniform in shape and size. They can be used in virtually any beaded project, including applique or flat stitch, lane stitch, peyote stitch, loomwork, bead weaving, bead stringing and jewelry making. Since they are so versatile, we recommend using seed beads for beginning beaders, classes, and workshops.

Size 13 or (or 13/0) Seed Beads measure between 1.6-1.8mm. The hole of the bead is at least 0.40mm in width. Beads are sold strung on hanks; each hank contains 12 20-inch strands. Approximately 5,000 beads per hank. Made in the Czech Republic.
