These Eclats De Perles 6/0 seed beads stand out from the standard round-hole crowd with a square hole at the center, which changes how thread sits inside the bead and gives finished work a subtly more structured, tailored drape. You get a 50-gram bag of transparent crystal glass beads ranging from 3.7 to 4.3 mm.

The transparent finish lets light pass straight through the glass, so these read as clean, glassy crystal — no coating, no color cast, just pure light.

What to make with them

The square hole makes these a natural choice for right-angle weave and other bead-weaving stitches where thread angle matters, and their classic crystal transparency works beautifully in bridal or winter holiday pieces where you want light-catching sparkle without added color.

Description

Vintage frnch crystal#1 square hole 6/0 50 gram bag. These vintage Venetian seed beads were crafted between the late 1800s and early 1920s, a testament to the extraordinary skill of Murano glass artisans working under Societa Veneziana Conterieconsortium of sixteen independent beadmakers united in 1898. Each bead carries over a century of history, made from glass canes that often predate the consortium itself. Because every batch was handmade, subtle differences in shape, size, and color are to be expected and celebrated. Most strands have long since given way to time, so a few broken bits of string may be found among these authentic treasures.
