Size: Approx 9mm(+/-0.5mm)
Hole size: Approx 1mm
Color: Clear

This is the highest quality Brazilian crystal with high transparency. A new 9mm size has been added to this popular classic material. Typically, round crystal sizes are even numbers, such as 6mm, then 8mm, then 10mm. However, we created this as an original product for those who desire an intermediate size.

Our crystals are "natural" Quartz.
Many people may not know that there are both synthetic and natural Quartz. Synthetic Quartz, as the name suggests, is artificially created by mimicking the chemical formula of Quartz. Synthetic stones are beautiful because their crystals are stable, and they are inexpensive due to the large quantities that can be produced. However, strictly speaking, they cannot be called "natural stones." Most Quartz sold as "AAA" quality is "synthetic Quartz." Not many places submit them for identification before selling. There are also cases where synthetic Quartz is sold believing it to be natural. To prove that the crystals we handle are rare "natural AAA Quartz," we submitted them for identification. It is impossible to submit every single crystal bead in our inventory for identification, so strictly speaking, we cannot guarantee that every bead is natural. However, since the supplier for our round crystals is the same, we are confident they are natural. We will continue to periodically submit random samples for identification.

Furthermore, we are very particular about the round Quartz beads we handle.
Round Quartz beads are a classic material often used by customers to make bracelets with silicone beading line. If the inside of the hole is rough, or if the edge of the hole is scratched and sharp, the beading line or silicone beading line can easily break when passed through. The Quartz we handle comes from a factory that specializes in finishing, paying close attention to the inside and edges of the holes, and we further select those with minimal edge damage. For this reason, our sourcing costs are slightly higher, but we believe the quality difference far outweighs the small price difference. As a result, we can confidently recommend our products to our customers.
