What Are Ginko Beads?
 
New in 2019 by MATUBO.
A high quality 2-hole Czech pressed glass bead. 
Ginko beads are designed to look like the fan-shaped Ginkgo tree leaves.
 
The bead is produced with special surface treatment technology and high purity holes.  Shine of the bead is a degree higher than the classic pressed beads; they are more on the level of firepolished beads.  The holes have a glossy smooth surface that does not tear off any stringing materials.
 
You can use the curved profile on the sides of the Ginko beads to nest up against many other shaped 1-hole and 2-hole beads in beadweaving and stringing designs!  Have fun with this new bead shape!

Hope to see you on Thursday for our Stitching Event!

Happy Beading!
