Crow Gunmetal 9mm

$311 $518

SKU: 9IC309-L

These 9mm crow beads come in a set of 150 and wear a gunmetal base that's already doing a lot of work — add an iris rainbow finish on top and you've got a bead that shifts from deep charcoal to an oil-slick swirl of color depending on the light.

The multi-color overcoat moves through the full iris spectrum — think AB shimmer on one end, full oil-slick color play on the other — sitting over a dark gunmetal ground for contrast that reads as moody and intentional.

What to make with them

The large-hole crow roller shape makes these a natural fit for leather and cord stringing, macramé accents, and chunky knotted necklaces; they also work well as bold spacers in Gothic or Victorian-inspired assemblage pieces where you want a focal element that earns its place.

Description

Crow beads are a staple in Native American jewelry, ceremonial clothing, and many other adornments. Crow beads are larger than many other types of glass beads, they also tend to have larger holes. Modern crow beads are Czech glass beads from Preciosa® known as "rollers". They are far more uniform than older style crow beads, and they come in a huge assortment of colors and finishes, some are even faceted! Aside from our glass crow rollers, you can also find crow beads made out of wood, as well as plastic. Wood crow beads are perfect for adding that natural feel to your designs. Plastic crow beads are better known as pony beads. Large sized seed beads are similar to the old fashioned crow beads, they are less uniform than roller beads, adding to their vintage appeal.
