These 25mm dyed stabilized magnesite round disc beads come in a bold red and arrive in a strand of approximately 6 pieces — big, chunky focal beads ready to anchor a statement design.
The dyed stabilized magnesite delivers a rich red tone across the natural stone matrix, so each piece carries its own subtle surface variation beneath that saturated color.

What to make with them
At 25mm, these are built for focal work — think chunky single-strand necklaces where one or three beads carry the whole design, or wire-wrapped pendants that let the size and color do the talking. They'd also work beautifully strung with knotting between each bead for a bold, minimal rope-style necklace.
Description
The sky's the limit for design possibilities using these fun brightly hued nugget beads! Magnesite makes an economical substitute for turquoise, and perfectly compliments fresh Southwestern styles. Magnesite or Magnesium Carbonate can range from transparent to opaque and is a highly porous, low luster stone which makes it a great candidate for enhancement and dying. It can be difficult to distinguish Magnesite from both dolomite and serpentine, both are also very suitable stones for enhancement and often marketed as faux jade. Magnesite can be dyed into a broad spectrum of bold colors, and is often enhanced to resemble turquoise, it is sometimes known as lime turquoise, white turquoise, or marshmallow turquoise. Native American cultures have crafted Magnesite into beads for both jewelry and currency for hundreds of years.
