Add a vibrant, organic touch to your creations with these coral-red-tinted sea bamboo chip beads.
What is sea bamboo?
It's a whitish marine plant dyed to imitate red coral, a protected marine species.
As you know, nature never makes two identical things, so on a single strand you'll find chips of varying sizes and thicknesses. That's why it's great to work with natural materials, because no two pieces of jewelry will ever be identical.
These dyed sea bamboo chip beads boast a bright, warm coral-red hue, ideal for adding character to your DIY jewelry creations. Their irregular 5-8 mm shape gives them a natural, authentic look, perfect for summery, bohemian or ethnic jewelry. Each pearl features variations in shape and nuance that reinforce the organic aspect of the material and give each creation a unique charm. Assembled in 80 cm strands, they offer an abundance of beads for a wide range of creative projects.
