Green glass beads, preciosa transparent teal tubes, 50 x 3mm bulk buy are long tubular glass beads from Preciosa, made in Czech glass and supplied in several package sizes for both hobby and production. A package of 40 grams contains approximately 67 beads, which together measure about 3.35 meters. They have a thicker wall and a larger hole than standard bugle beads, making them suitable for jewelry and projects with multiple strands. Tubes are fixed in shape and can be used both in extension of each other or side by side in woven patterns.
Use Preciosa Tubes for bracelets, necklaces, embroidery on textiles or decorative applications. The longer 50 mm beads provide a more distinctive design and stability in the construction. The transparent teal green shade goes well in combination with neutral or metallic colours.
Maintenance
In order to preserve the color and expression, it is recommended to use a strong pearl thread or wire, as tube pearls have a cut edge that can be slightly angular. Store the beads dry and away from hard materials to avoid scratches. When cleaning, they can be wiped gently with a soft cloth.
