Seed beads come in multiple colours and various sizes. And when different coloured seed beads are joined, they can have the effect of rainbow in your ears, on your neck and everywhere you wear them.

Seed beads come in sizes that can range anywhere in between 6's to 22's. Unlike glass beads, they can be of different finish, like matt or semi-lustrous. You can also find seed beads which have nice and smooth shine that reflect light and twinkle like stars. They are usually made in Czechoslovakia, Taiwan, China and Japan. Czechoslovakia is famous for its longest tradition for making of seed beads. Seed beads are prepared by cutting a hot tube of glass after the tube is made of right size.
