Fiber Optic Round Black 5.5mm

$855 $1425

SKU: 6FO609-2

These 5.5mm fiber optic glass rounds from Hongkong Newbosun Gems Factory Ltd deliver that deep, light-catching black that flat matte or dyed beads just can't replicate. The fiber optic finish pulls light into the bead and gives it an inner glow, making each round look like a tiny dark star.

Fiber optic glass creates a silky, luminous depth in the black — not flat, not shiny in a surface-gloss way, but genuinely lit from within, shifting subtly as the angle changes.

What to make with them

String them into Victorian-inspired mourning jewelry or gothic rosaries where that moody luminosity does the heavy lifting, or work them into beaded crochet and kumihimo braids where the consistent 5.5mm round shape keeps tension even and the dark glow adds drama to every repeat.

Description

Our beautiful Grade A Fiber Optic (Cat's Eye Beads) display a perfectly centered chatoyant "Cat's Eye" effect. These top quality beads start out from the same material used for fiber optic telephone cables. The glass fibers are fused together and then machine cut into innumerable shapes and sizes. The cat's eye effect of these beads is a result of light reflecting off the edges of the glass fibers at the surface of the bead.
