Large Hole Beads

Large hole bead designs for jewelry making, sold by the strand. Hole sizes run 2mm to 2.5mm, in smooth rounds at 6mm, 8mm and 10mm and rondelles at 5x8mm and 6x10mm — jasper, agate, quartz, howlite, tiger eye, onyx, amethyst and labradorite.

The wider drill is the whole point: a 2mm hole takes leather cord, thick waxed cotton, elastic and multiple strands, so these are the beads to reach for when a standard 1mm hole will not pass your stringing material. They work for wrap bracelets, leather necklaces and chunky stacks.
