Hematite beads cube with Maltese cross, diameter 6x6mm +/- , length 40cm +/-

A graphic accent for jewellery with character

Hematite beads in the shape of a cube with a Maltese cross are a distinctive material for creating jewellery where not only colour and shape matter, but also the clear mood of the piece. The geometric silhouette adds rhythm and structure to the design, while the decorative cross motif makes each bead stand out even in a minimalist setting. This format is especially suitable for jewellery with a modern, restrained or symbolically decorative feel.

Hematite is valued for its characteristic metallic sheen and deep graphite tone, which pairs beautifully with both silvery and dark hardware. On a thread about 40 cm long, these beads are convenient for bracelets, short necklaces, earrings, pendants, men’s accessories, or combined handmade designer pieces. The cubic shape helps create sharp lines in the design, while the Maltese cross adds texture and visual depth.

This material is a great choice for makers who work with contrasts of shapes and love details that can be read at first glance. The beads can be combined with matte onyx, agate, lava, steel elements, crystal inserts, or minimalist dividers. They look equally at home in monochrome compositions and in more complex design combinations where you need to add a clear focal accent.

• The cube shape creates a neat geometric rhythm in the piece.
• The Maltese cross adds a distinctive decorative character.
• The graphite tone is easy to mix with different materials and colours.
• A 40 cm thread is suitable for a series of items or a single accent project.

Hematite beads of this type are especially well expressed in jewellery with a mood: restrained, stylish, a little rugged, or symbolically minimalist. It’s a material for those who value in handmade work the expressiveness of form, the purity of lines, and a thoughtfully designed aesthetic of the details.
