Green Shape Rectangle Glass Beads

Description

Green Rectangle Glass Beads

Creating structured, architectural jewellery designs demands beads with precise geometric forms and consistent dimensions. Each green rectangle glass bead measures exactly 12mm in length by 6mm in width, offering clean lines and sharp corners that contrast beautifully against organic shapes like chips or rounds. The hole runs lengthwise through the 12mm axis, typically measuring around 1mm in diameter, allowing these beads to stack horizontally along beading wire or hang vertically from jump rings. Their flat rectangular profile sits flush against skin when used in bracelets, eliminating the bulk and roll common with spherical beads.

• Dimensions: 12mm length × 6mm width with lengthwise drilling
• Rich emerald green hue with transparent glass construction
• Smooth polished surface reflecting light across flat planes
• Uniform rectangular shape maintains consistent spacing in multi-strand work
• Sold individually at AU$0.29 per bead

These beads excel in minimalist bar earring designs where a single rectangular bead dangles horizontally from sterling silver ear wires, creating a sleek contemporary silhouette. Their flat backs make them excellent spacers in memory wire bracelets, sitting comfortably against the wrist without digging in during movement. In macramé wall hangings, threading these emerald rectangles horizontally creates striking colour blocks within neutral cord patterns. The 12mm length also works well in charm-style necklaces where rectangular beads dangle at staggered heights alongside metal pendants, adding geometric interest without overwhelming delicate chains.

Clean your beads with lukewarm water and mild soap if they become dusty during storage. The lengthwise hole accommodates most standard beading wires up to 0.45mm diameter, plus lighter weight cords for knotted designs. We stock these in individual quantities so you can purchase exactly what your current project requires without overbuying.

The emerald green appears deeper when viewed through the 6mm thickness compared to the lighter tone visible along the 12mm edges. Under natural daylight, these beads show a true grass-green hue, while indoor LED lighting brings out subtle blue undertones. This colour intensity works particularly well when alternated with clear glass beads in graduated colour fade patterns.
