Give your jewelry a luxurious look with this gold-plated olive-shaped bead adorned with a gemstone-style cabochon and small, colorful zirconium oxides.
This 10x6 mm olive-shaped bead packs a lot of detail into a small size. Its fine gold plated structure is adorned with a gemstone-style cabochon and tiny zirconium oxides that add various touches of color and light. The intricate metal patterns reinforce its ethnic inspiration and allow you to create a piece of jewelry with character without needing to layer on numerous components.
What can you do with this olive-shaped bead?
It’s definitely a bead meant for stringing: its hole allows you to thread it directly onto a wire, cable, or other suitable base. You can place it at the center of a bracelet or alternate several designs with more understated beads. To create a piece of jewelry with ethnic influences, take inspiration from this Tibetan-style bracelet and mix worked metal with different colors and materials. This bead can also serve as a focal point in a short necklace. Pair it with heishi beads, gemstones, or seed beads to play with contrasting shapes. The bohemian spirit of these pieces—which blend heishi beads, gemstones, and natural beads —offers plenty of inspiration for creating a less symmetrical design.
