100 Dark Royal Blue Glass Crow Beads

A deep, saturated opaque royal blue, this shade delivers bold color with a classic, regal feel that anchors a pattern beautifully. Each glass bead is 9mm x 6mm x 3.5mm with a large hole that strings easily onto leather lace, sinew, hemp, or wire. Crow beads are replicas of the glass trade beads carried along frontier and river routes in the 1600s through the 1800s, when blue was one of the most prized colors of all. Dark royal blue remains a cornerstone shade for Native American regalia, powwow dance outfits, and traditional beadwork, pairing strongly with white, red, and yellow. It brings the same depth to necklaces, earrings, beaded fringe, and hatbands. Each strand holds approximately 100 dark royal blue beads in a single color.
