Transparent-Lustered TOHO Seed Beads - Teal

Transparent-Lustered TOHO seed beads combine the clarity of transparent glass with a lustrous surface finish that enhances depth, shine and colour intensity. Light passes through the bead while reflecting from the luster coating, creating a rich, glowing appearance that changes subtly as the beads move. This finish adds brightness and visual depth, making Transparent-Lustered colours particularly popular for floral beadwork, decorative jewellery and detailed bead weaving projects.

The luminous finish pairs beautifully with metallic findings, freshwater pearls, crystals and gemstone beads. Transparent-Lustered TOHO beads are often used to add highlights, dimension and colour variation to peyote stitch, brick stitch, bead embroidery, loom beadwork and other intricate jewellery designs.
