What Shapes Do Preciosa Crystal Beads Come In? The range covers the most widely used bead shapes in professional jewellery making: Bicone beads — the most popular shape, with a distinctive double-cone profile and precision-cut facets for exceptional sparkle. Available from 3mm to 6mm in 100+ colours including distinctive matte finishes not available in Austrian equivalents. Ideal for bracelets, necklaces and earrings where facets catch and reflect light in motion. Round beads — a classic, versatile shape with facets distributed evenly across the entire surface for omni-directional sparkle. Available from 3mm to 6mm, suitable for virtually every jewellery design from delicate to statement pieces. Shaped beads — specialty shapes including hearts, briolettes and unique cuts for focal points and distinctive creative designs, compatible with the same findings and threading materials as bicone and round
