Create original DIY costume jewelry with this irregular CCB silver acrylic tube bead, ideal for contemporary necklaces, bracelets or earrings.
CCB stands for Copper Coated Beads. This is a coating technique that consists of covering acrylic beads with a thin layer of copper, before plating them with other metallic finishes (gold, silver, copper, antique bronze...).
These beads combine the lightness of acrylic with a metal-like shine. Please note that there may be slight traces of oxidation.
This bead with its slightly irregular tubular profile adds volume and movement to your creations. Its elongated, organic shape, with its non-uniform contours, gives it a raw, natural look, while retaining a metallic rendering. Its 2.6 mm through-hole makes for quick and easy threading. It measures 21 mm in length and 12 mm in diameter.
How to use this bead tube?
This tube bead lends itself to a wide range of DIY jewelry applications. It can be used as a central element on an elastic bracelet, interspersed between smaller beads to create rhythm, or strung on a wire to compose a simple, graphic necklace. Its generous size also makes it a good choice for light earrings with a structured effect.
