Gold-Filled 2mm Round Seamless w/ 1.0mm Hole (1/20 14K)

These 2mm gold-filled round seamless beads are an enduringly popular component among jewelry designers, making them one of our bestselling items. Unlike gold-plated beads, gold-filled beads avoid chipping and scratching and will remain gold for a lifetime if properly cared for. These beads work great as spacers and are also useful for holding smaller beads and findings in place. Use them to add rich, golden luster to your designs without distracting bulkiness. sterling silver seamless round beads.

Turned orange
Date:December 13, 2012
Cons: Quality
"I used these as spacers in a pearl necklace, and was horrified recently to find that several of them had turned orange. I purposely use gold-filled beads to avoid this problem, and now I have lots of orange beads sprinkled in my braided pearl necklace. Thank goodness this was a piece I made for me, not for a client. I don't know if plated beads got mixed in with the gold filled, or what, but I would not take the risk of buying these again."

Great to finish off a headpin!
Date:September 17, 2012
Pros: Size, Price, Quality, Color
Other beading styles or techniques: stringing, weaving
Creation: "ball-end" headpins for wire-wrapped loop earrings
"Gold-filled ball-end head pins are expensive--I found adding this 2mm round to a headpin gives the appearance of a ball-end headpin at a good price. I used them on 1.5" 24 gauge gold-fiiled headpins with 5mm pearls to make wire-wrapped loops attached to gold-filled chain to make earrings."

Beautiful little gold beads
Date:June 27, 2011
Pros: Size, Price, Versatile, Unique, Ease of Use, Quality, Color
"I used these beads in place of knotting between 6-8mm gemstone beads. They are very beautiful, and particularly set off the gold in goldstone and lapis. They are very nice quality and the holes are a nice size to work with. I keep plenty of these on hand for beaded necklaces."
