Bleeding Tortoiseshell

Held to the light, it moves between dark and light tones in a live gradient.

About Bleeding Tortoiseshell

Bleeding tortoiseshell is known in the bead world for its colour transitions and the depth it shows under light. It is the material collectors reach for when they want a strand with movement in it.

The defining trait is what happens when you hold the beads to the light or turn them: dark and light tones run into one another in a live gradient. That is what gives these strands their richer, more collectable look.

The worked surface holds its shine for a long time, slips comfortably in the hand and offers a solid, balanced pull.

Cut: barley, capsule, round or custom · Surface: polished, smooth · Beads: 33 · Made in Türkiye.
