2VE552-MR: MIX Desert Matte 6-16mm-200GM is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
This 200g Desert Matte mix brings together assorted glass beads ranging from 6 to 16mm in a curated earthy palette — giving you a range of shapes and sizes to work with in a single bag.
The transparent glass is etched to a frosted, sea-glass-like surface that softens light rather than reflecting it, lending each bead a quiet, tactile quality.
The size range from 6 to 16mm makes this mix well-suited for graduated stringing, boho-style layered necklaces, and mixed-media earring designs where varied scale adds visual rhythm; the matte finish also plays nicely against metallic findings and natural fiber wraps.

Glass bead mixtures from India often appear to be dusty. This dusty grey material is called 'kiln wash' or 'slip' and is used to help the bead release from the wire upon which it was formed. Simply rinse your beads off in the sink or wipe off with a piece of cloth to remove the slip.
