Rhyolite bead strands (Leopardskin)

Leopardskin Rhyolite beads

Nice Leopardskin rhyolite beads, temporarily strung on a plastic strand. These are not completed necklaces – it’s just a handy way to store the beads.

A lot of sellers sell these as Leopardskin Jasper, but it is a very debatable subject, with many people debating whether it is a form of orbicular Jasper or a Rhyolite.

Absolutely perfect for jewellers and beaders; these are a decent contrast stone, and are typically used for costume jewellery and beaded pieces.

These beads contrast with a fair few colours – pair them with darker beads for a stand out look but they also contrast really well with antiqued metals.

These beads are not freeforms, but they are also not calibrated beads – as such, an 8MM strand may contain beads that are 7.5MM or 8.5MM – the sizes may vary a little. Obviously, this doesn’t apply to the chip beads – these are random sizes!
