"Seed Bead" is a generic term for any small bead. Available in various shapes and sizes, the variety is endless. Atlantic Gems has chosen to focus on Japanese glass bead maker Miyuki. Considered a world standard, Miyuki glass beads are the choice of designers and beaders for their high quality, brilliance, and uniform and consistent shape. Currently, Atlantic Gems carries complete lines of Delicas (cylinders) and Rounds. More sizes and shapes will be added in the future.
