Japanese Toho seed beads are an exciting component for any beaded project. Precision-cut in a hexagon shape, these six-sided treasures are priceless. Use these in the place of round beads where you want to add extra texture and reflect more light. Each bead will be extremely consistent in size, shape and coloring, so do not be afraid to purchase the same code at a different date as it should remain the same. With this particular 8-gram pack of hexagon Toho beads you can expect to get approximately 560 beads. Use this number strictly as a reference tool as different finishes will have slightly higher or lower counts. Always over-estimate quantities for your jewelry designs to be safe. It is always better to have some left over than not enough to finish a project.. Use Toho seed beads for embroidery, embellishment, jewelry designs and everything in between. Color matching has never been easier than with Artbeads.com's extensive Toho seed bead product line.
