Preciosa Crystal Diamond Crystal Blonde Flare 3mm

These 3mm Preciosa Ornela machine-cut crystal diamond-shape beads in Crystal Blonde Flare come 144 pieces to a pack, giving you a solid working quantity of a faceted Czech glass crystal that catches light from every angle. The diamond silhouette — broader at the girdle, tapering to points — gives your work a geometry that round or bicone beads simply don't.

Crystal Blonde Flare carries a surface coating over the crystal base that shifts the warm, golden-tan tone with an added sheen or color play — expect something in the honey-to-champagne range that reads earthy and luminous at once, though keep in mind the coated finish sits on the surface and can wear with friction over time.

What to make with them

The pointed diamond shape makes these a natural for strung necklaces and earrings where the facets can swing free and catch light, and they work especially well as spacers or accent beads in bead-woven pieces like right-angle weave or herringbone where their geometry locks in neatly between seed beads.

The finish on these beads is delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to friction, moisture, skin acids, and harsh chemicals to preserve the surface coating.
