8g Iris Dk Copper Delicas

Miyuki's Delica seed beads are in a class of their own! Their size is consistent which makes weaving with them a pleasure. With a large hole, you can pass your thread through the bead multiple times without breaking the bead. You can also count on their color being consistent time and time again. For bead weaving, looming or as spacer beads, Miyuki's Delica seed beads are a must-have for every beader! Please note that these beads should not be dry cleaned Remember, when you buy your beads and bead supplies from Artbeads.com, FREE SHIPPING is available in the USA with orders of $10 or more.

"I love metallic colors and this Matte Copper Iris is beautiful! It has more red in it than appears in the photo. It is a dark Reddish Copper with the Blue and Green hints that an oxidized copper would have!
Miyuki Delicas offer excellent quality with their uniform size, shape and extra big holes! Very little culling is necessary when working with Delicas and they perfect for on and off loom beadweaving.
The matte metallic finishes are always more expensive but with free shipping and a coupon, this was the best price per gram that I found for this color!
I actually ran out of this color in the middle of a project (Regal Reiteration by Hatsumi Oshitani, B&B 12/08) which can be scary as every 'Color Batch' can be slightly different...but these matched up perfectly with the ones I had in my stash that were purchased a long time ago and from a different store!"

Exceptional Deep Colored Beads
Date:August 18, 2011
Pros: Price, Versatile, Unique, Quality, Color
Other beading styles or techniques: I work with a lot of vintage brass and uncirculated vintage glass beads.
Creation: I am creating a necklace with Miyuki Delica Seed Beads.
"Iris Dark Copper beads from Miyuki are unusual and have a beautiful deep color. I have seen these nowhere else but at Artbeads.
I am using them in a seed bead piece that I hope to enter in a contest. The iris effect that is part of the bead finish allows the light to pick up greens and blues so inherent in copper itself. These allow me to add greens, blues and even pinks to my beaded design. Try these out and see what colors you can put them with!
