Grade ‘A’ Rhinestone Multi Strand Linking Bead – (19mm)

Description

Rhinestone Multi Strand Connector

Designers working with graduated necklaces or multi-row bracelets rely on this 19mm linking bead to manage strand distribution while adding decorative interest. The rhinestone-studded surface catches light at the convergence point, turning a structural necessity into a design feature that anchors layered compositions.

• Overall length of 19mm with 8mm width provides substantial presence without overwhelming delicate beadwork
• Centre hole measures 2mm to accommodate heavier stringing materials or multiple passes of fine wire
• Two side holes at 1.2mm each accept standard beading wire, silk cord, or fine chain
• Lightweight alloy construction with gold-tone plating and grade A rhinestone embellishments
• Three-hole configuration allows asymmetric strand arrangements or balanced triple-row designs

Illusion necklaces gain structure when you thread a single strand through the centre hole and branch two finer strands through the side openings, creating the appearance of floating beads that converge at intervals. Bracelet makers use this rhinestone component to transform simple memory wire into sophisticated triple-wrap designs, with each coil passing through a separate hole for controlled spacing. The dimensions work particularly well when you’re combining 4mm rounds on outer strands with a 6mm focal strand through the middle — the proportions balance without the connector dominating the composition.

The rhinestones sit in recessed settings that protect them during wear, while the gold plating develops a subtle warmth over time rather than wearing to raw metal. Thread it with 0.45mm beading wire for fluid drape, or use gold-tone spacer beads on either side to create symmetrical transitions between multi-strand and single-strand sections in convertible jewellery that can be worn multiple ways.

Under indoor lighting the rhinestones throw soft sparkle rather than sharp flashes, making this connector suitable for both evening statement pieces and daytime layered looks. The 8mm width means it sits flat against skin without tilting, particularly when strands carry similar weight distribution across all three holes.
