FAQ

What can I make with these? A 15 inch strand of 10mm phoenix lapis spiral twist beads is enough for a statement bracelet, a short single-strand necklace or several matched earring pairs. The blue-and-green mix does the colour work for you, so a plain strand and simple findings is often enough; the gold pyrite flecking pairs especially well with gold filled components.

Will the beads vary? Phoenix Lapis is a natural stone, so the balance of blue to green shifts on every bead — some are almost solid royal blue while others are mostly green with blue veining.

What stringing material works? The 1.2mm hole takes beading wire, nylon thread, thin leather cord and most stretch elastic, so these lapis lazuli beads suit both knotted and strung designs.

Anything else worth knowing? Sits well beside amazonite, turquoise and clear quartz, and gives a richer, more varied alternative to plain lapis in the same size.
