7EP298-3R: Vintage French Transparent Prune#3 7/0 50 Gram Bag is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
These are vintage French 7/0 seed beads from Eclats De Perles in a transparent prune — a deep, wine-toned purple — sourced in a 50-gram bag. The 7/0 size (3.2–3.7 mm) gives you a chunkier bead than the standard 11/0, which means they work up fast and read beautifully as individual color statements.
The transparent finish lets light move straight through the glass, giving the prune tone a luminous, jewel-like depth rather than a flat or chalky surface.
Their larger 7/0 scale makes these a natural fit for loomed bands, knotted necklaces, and macramé accents where you want the bead to hold visual weight. They're also well-suited for fringe work and embroidery on fabric or leather, where the transparent purple catches the light with every movement.

Vintage frnch transparent prune#3 7/0 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.
