Description of Griffin Silk Beading Needle Brown

Naturseide (German for "Natural Silk") is the traditional stringing material used by beaders for centuries. You can't knot pearls without silk. And nothing hangs like silk cord, either. The thread comes with an attached needle that allows you to pass the cord through pearls, beads, and stones without having to double the cord over. We like this thick silk cord for making those knotted 'tin cup' necklaces, where you can see some cord in between each section of beads on the necklace. We have most Griffin colors. Quantity: 1 package of size 6 bead cord, about 2 meters in length, plus attached needle.

Frustratingly Fragile Beading Needle

Based on my experience using this beading needle, I found it to be very delicate and prone to breakage. Although it is designed for silk beading, the needle did not hold up well when I used it with other materials. The one positive aspect is that it is easy to thread due to its size. However, overall I would not recommend this item as it simply doesn't hold up.

Pros
  • Easy to thread beads
Cons
  • Not durable and prone to breaking

Silk thread

I love this silk thread with attached needle. This makes it much easier to weave the beads and if I have to knot the thread it unravels easily. Good product.

Pros
  • Beading accessories
Cons
  • unreliable

the only brand I will use

I've been making jewelry as a hobby for a few years; Researching, discovering and working with the best tools and materials available is important to me. I find Griffin Silk Beading cords to be the best for beading. Once I cut the needle it stays strong even to the end of some of my long rope necklaces. I use different gauges of cord depending on what type of beads I'm working with, but this #6 is my favorite. See the attached photo for an example of my work with Griffin Silk. I've rarely been…

Pros
  • crafts and sewing
Cons
  • don't remember
