Beads Silver-coloured Obsidian faceted, diameter 11-13x7-8mm+- seed beads 3mm+-, length 39cm+-

Stunning obsidian for expressive handmade jewellery

Beads made of silver-coloured obsidian in the shape of faceted pieces are a material that immediately captures attention with the depth of its colour and the distinctive play of light across the facets. The dark stone base pairs beautifully with a soft silvery sheen, making the strand look noble, modern, and highly expressive. The unusual shape of each bead adds a lively texture to your designs: jewellery made with this stone doesn’t look flat or monotonous—it gains rhythm, volume, and a special mood.

The faceted format 11–13x7–8 mm is well-suited for creating statement pieces where it’s important not only that the material is beautiful, but also that it looks decoratively vivid. The small seed-bead elements, about 3 mm, between larger beads add delicate lightness to the strand, visually highlight the main stone, and help achieve a more harmonious look for the finished jewellery. This combination of sizes is convenient for working on beads, bracelets, earrings, necklaces in an asymmetrical style, or designer sets.

Silver-coloured obsidian looks especially beautiful when paired with silver-toned, graphite, oxidised, or steel-coloured fittings. It suits restrained classics, modern minimalism, ethnic-inspired designs, and creative jewellery with a natural character. With this material, you can make both concise everyday pieces and more expressive compositions for evening styling. A strand length of approximately 39 cm provides ample space to bring different ideas to life—from a single complete piece to several smaller projects.
