Shungite Beads on String: The Creator's Ready-Made Palette
Stop sorting and start creating. These are not loose beads in a bag—they are 50 perfectly matched, pre-strung shungite beads, arriving on a strong temporary thread. Each strand is a ready-to-use component, calibrated by size (6, 8, 10, or 12 mm) and length. Designed for the artisan who values precision, efficiency, and the raw, natural beauty of Type II shungite with its occasional spark of pyrite or quartz.
Pre-Strung Precision: Your Time, Saved
- Immediately Workable: Each bead is already evenly spaced on a sturdy thread. Simply cut the thread to use beads individually, or incorporate entire sections into your design without tedious stringing.
- Guaranteed Quantity & Order: No counting, no losing beads under the table. You get exactly 50 beads, organized and ready.
- Calibrated Sizing: Beads are consistently sized within each strand (6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm), ensuring professional, symmetrical results in your jewelry.
Natural Character: No Two Beads Alike
This is mass production with a soul. Because the beads are made from natural shungite, many feature unique, mesmerizing inclusions:
- Golden Pyrite Flecks: Tiny sparks of "fool's gold" that catch the light, adding a subtle, celestial glitter.
- White Quartz Veins: Delicate strokes of milky white, creating a marbled, graphic effect.
These variations are not defects—they are signatures of authenticity, making each piece of jewelry you create truly one-of-a-kind.
