100 Translucent Red Crow Beads

Translucent red glows like a ruby when the light passes through, giving these crow beads a jewel-like brilliance that solid reds can’t quite match. Each glass bead measures 9mm x 6mm x 3.5mm with a large hole that slides onto leather lace, artificial sinew, hemp cord, or beading wire. Crow beads are replicas of the glass trade beads carried along frontier and river routes in the 1600s through the 1800s, and red has always been a treasured accent in Native American regalia, powwow dance outfits, and traditional beadwork. The see-through finish makes this shade a standout in beaded fringe, earrings, and necklaces, and it works anywhere you’d reach for a crow bead. You’ll receive approximately 100 translucent red beads per single-color strand. Combine same-price strands to reach our quantity discounts.
