Sodalite round beads in 6mm bring that signature deep blue-grey stone with its calm, mottled character to your stringing and wirework projects. These are a consistent seller for good reason — sodalite's natural patterning means every finished piece has its own quiet personality.
Expect the natural variation sodalite is known for: deep navy to grey-blue tones threaded with white veining, with no two beads reading exactly the same.

What to make with them
Their 6mm round profile is a reliable workhorse for knotted gemstone necklaces and stacked bracelets, and they pair well in multi-stone designs where you want a cooler, grounding tone alongside warmer stones like carnelian or sunstone.
Description
Sodalite is a beautiful intense blue stone with white splotches. It can easily be confused with Lapis , and for good reason. Sodalite is nearly identical to Lapis in chemical composition: Sodalite is a sodium aluminum chlorine silicate, and lapis contains sulfur instead of chlorine. Sodalite deposits can be found in Canada, Namibia, USA, Russia and Italy. Sodalite pairs well with lapis lazuli (naturally), Malachite and sterling silver
