All these beads are made on larger mandrels than usual to give bigger bead holes. They are intended to be worn on the European add-a-bead style bracelets, ie Trollbeads, Pandora, Lovelinks.
Please be aware that all these bracelet systems are different sizes so you need to check that the beads will actually fit your chain - I always give the beadhole size (ID = inner diameter). I have lots of different sized mandrels!
They can also be worn on any chunky chain, leather or rubber thong - or any way you like!
I occasionally line big hole beads with silver or copper cores too (I often list these in my Etsy shop).

Buy this item if you'd like me to add a sterling silver bail to your silver core bead so that you can wear it flat to show off the hand-cored silver centre - just like my British Bead Award-winning Dazzle necklace!
Chain not included, if you prefer, your pendant can be supplied on a handmade hammered silver ring - this option works really well if you want to hang your pendant from a ribbon rather than a chain.
(please note, every bead and bail are different and the amount of scrolling and choice of silver spacers will be at my discretion, also the beads in the photos are not included, obviously!)
Lightly hammered triangular Silver bead.
Bead measures approx 7 x 11mm, hole measures approx 5.5mm.
Please note: I didn't make these beads!
