Description
DiamonDuo beads are pressed Czech glass beads that allow for endless design possibilities. These beads feature a lovely diamond shape with a domed dimensional top that will stand out in your jewelry designs. They have two parallel stringing holes, allowing you to use them in multiple ways. These Czech glass 8 x 5mm diamond shaped beads with two holes are manufactured in the Czech Republic. The .8mm parallel holes allow for multiple thread passes. The DiamonDuo's unique shape & sharp lines allow them to nestle closely together with barely any space between them. Try them in the many beadweaving patterns available like Sam Wescott's new tutorial for "Holly Drops"; here's the link for her pattern: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1119129713/beadweaving-pattern-for-holly-drops Be sure to check that all the holes in each bead is patent before you use the bead. Often projects will ask you to add the bead using one hole. Then you'll come back to use the second hole several steps later. So, if that hole is blocked, you'll have to undo a lot of work to change out the bead!

The main difference is a slight difference in the top faceting where DiamonDuos have a distinct pyramid shape on top. You will receive 1 - 2" tube of DiamonDuos weighing approximately 8 grams depending on the finish. Don't forget to click twice on any picture for an enlarged image.
