These 8mm fire polished melon beads from Preciosa Ornela come 25 pieces to a pack in a transparent ruby that means business — the faceted ridges of the melon shape catch light from every angle, giving you serious sparkle without a coating that can wear away.

Transparent ruby glass lets light pass straight through, so the color reads as a deep, glassy red — rich and saturated when clustered, luminous and gem-like when worn against skin.

What to make with them

The melon's ridged silhouette makes it a natural focal point in earring drops and pendant designs, and the 8mm size threads up beautifully in chunky statement necklaces or as a bold accent bead in beaded cuffs and wrap bracelets.
