Brass beads, heavily coated with a Silver finish. Metal seed beads can be used in a variety of bead weaving and bead loom projects. The edges of the holes may be sharp, due to the manufacturing process. We recommend using a stronger beading thread, such as Fire line, Wildfire or Power pro. KO or Nomo threads are not recommended.
