Description

Yellow Cylinder Millefiori Glass Beads are chunky and roughly 1.3 inch long and sold in 2 ounce lots of approximately 4+ pieces. These beads are competitively priced by weight for use in mosaic art, but the diameters of these beads are over 1/2 inch, which means they best pressed into thinset mortar or concrete instead of being glued to a flat surface.

Product Coverage

This is a problematic question because beads was intended to be used as an accent instead of as area coverage, and the piece size can vary. One 2-ounce lot covers roughly 2 square inches.

Compatibility

Yellow Cylinder Millefiori Glass Beads are over 1/2 inch in diameter, which is thicker than mosaic of the glass mosaic tile we sell. For this reason, these beads are best used by pressing into a bed of thinset mortar or a stepping stone mold filled with concrete.

Cutting Yellow Cylinder Millefiori Glass Beads

These beads are too large to be cut using a Mosaic Glass Cutter because they won’t fit into the jaws. These beads are best used uncut. Lampwork beads often break unpredictably when cut with compression tools.
