HAAMIIQII 80pcs 3x5mm Natural Black Hematite Loose Gemstone Beads Cylinder Spacer Stone Beads for Jewelry Making DIY Bracelet Necklace

The star beads are a dark silver that are of great quality and durable. They are smaller and all sized the same. It was a great value for the money the money and shape is fun for holidays.

When I first opened the package, I wanted to wear it as a necklace immediately. Unfortunately, I purchased these for bracelets. The bead is beautiful and has a good weight to it. Feels luxurious. I will be buying more to make a necklace!

There were only 4 broken ones out of the 60. Received on a strand. I expected them to be a little thicker, and it would probably help the structural integrity of the beads if they were 50% thicker because of the hole drilled in the middle. Very nice straight holes, my hemp and wire fits perfectly inside. Thank you! I can tell they’re real iron ore. They have very nice rounded edges too.

The beads are very nice; however, the beads weren’t secured on the strings and there was a hole in the plastic bag. So somewhere along the way, several beads fell out and were lost before I received it…I only counted 153 out of the 180.

Very pretty beads, good quality and super nice shape. However, the hole is very small. I have 3mm beads with larger holes. It will fit a 22 gauge wire and higher but unless a 20 gauge wire is perfectly straight you will have a very hard time and will need a tool to pull it through with all your might and may strip the wire a little. Will not fit 18 gauge. A flexible wire .019 is fine but if you crimp a loop and try to go through the bead a 2nd time so it’s stronger you will not be able to. I am not sure why they made a nice size bead with such a tiny hole. Certainly usable and beautiful but will limit usage somewhat. Will still buy again.

Just as described

It's been great for my jewelry making. The hematite seems real, and I'm happy with the size, quality and weight overall.
