Faceted & Microfaceted Shaped Beads
Tiny facets, huge brilliance. Our Faceted & Microfaceted Beads gallery spotlights gemstones carved with dozens—even hundreds—of diamond-cut planes, turning every 2 mm to 5 mm bead into a miniature prism. 15-inch strands drilled with consistent 0.4–0.8 mm holes that fit onto 26- to 20-gauge wire. (wire size chart) Each strand is hewn from premium rough and polished to a liquid-glass gleam, upholding our promise that every bead on the strand is usable.
Designers reach for these spark generators to pepper matte malas with pinpoint highlights, weave shimmering spinel rondelles through seed-bead cuffs, or layer ombré sapphire micro-rounds for luxe stackers. Use the filter bar to jump straight to Microfaceted Rounds, Faceted Rondelles, or Diamond-Cut Cubes, then fine-tune by stone, size, or finish—every option hand-curated by our Minnesota design team for crisp edges and even color.
The most popular faceted beads are round & rondelle, but we also offer oval, square, cube, and teardrop shapes. Most cuts are laser or “diamond” faceted for a sharp edge; others use a softer wheel-polish finish. View close-up photos to see the edge profile and surface texture before selecting beads for accent rows, spacer sections, or full-strand designs. Or contact us at websales@dakotastones.com. .
Each strand is quality control checked for facet consistency, color and grade in Minnesota before it can be called a ‘Dakota Stone’ . Filter by stone, size, or shape to find the exact faceted or microfaceted beads your project requires.
♦ Note: Dakota Stones uses the term 'faceted' for beads 6mm or greater. Beads smaller than 6mm are classified as 'microfaceted' (or diamond cut faceted)
