Miyuki Quarter Tila

These Miyuki bar beads embody the excellence of Japanese craftsmanship and are the ultimate detail and finishing bead for your most delicate creations. Like their larger siblings, they feature 2 perfectly calibrated parallel holes for stable, refined assemblies.

Why use Japanese Quarter Tila beads in your creations?

Miyuki 5x1.2mm beads offer unique creative possibilities thanks to their elongated strip format and exceptional finesse.

These fine 2-hole beads allow you to create ultra-delicate lines, almost like a pencil stroke in your jewelry. They bring unrivalled precision to intricate geometric patterns and detailed designs that require meticulous attention to detail.

Ideal for bridging small gaps between larger beads or for creating softer curves in a rigid weave. Quarter Tila are perfect as spacers to lighten a design or create harmonious transitions between different sections of your jewelry.

Thanks to their very fine barrette format, these beads are perfect for light, airy earrings that don't pull on the lobes, even for medium-sized pendant creations.

Very fine rectangular beads require particular care when handling.

Important: The Quarter Tila is the most delicate of the Tila family because of its fineness (only 1.2mm wide and 1.9mm thick). The thin glass can crack if you force it when threading. If a hole seems blocked, gently use a very fine needle to clean it out rather than forcing the thread through.

As with all glass beads, work on a beading mat or padded surface. Quarter Tila beads are precious, and their small size makes them difficult to find in the event of a fall!
