Beadalon Silk Thread with Needle Size #6 is a five-pack of pre-threaded 100% silk beading cord (0.70 mm) in five complementary colours, ready for immediate use in necklaces, rosaries, and fine beadwork.

This value bundle supplies professional-quality silk thread in White, Black, Grey, Light Pink, and Brown, each on a 2-meter card with a needle already attached. The size #6, 0.70 mm diameter suits pearl knots, bead stringing, and delicate jewellery finishes where a soft, natural drape and reliable tensile strength are important. The pre-threaded needles and colour selection let you begin projects faster and match thread colour to beads for a cleaner, more finished look.

What makes Beadalon silk thread different from synthetic beading cord?

Beadalon uses 100% silk for a natural hand, subtle sheen, and excellent knotting characteristics that many designers prefer for pearls and heirloom pieces. Compared with synthetics, silk sits and knots more naturally between beads, offering a traditional drape and professional appearance without bulky stiffness.

• 100% natural silk provides soft drape and subtle luster.
• Excellent knot-holding for secure pearl and bead spacing.
• Size #6 (0.70 mm) fits most pearl and small-hole beadwork.
• Pre-threaded needles reduce prep time and frustration.

How durable and reliable is the 0.70 mm silk for everyday jewellery?

This silk cord is designed for wearable jewellery and offers a balance of strength and flexibility. While silk is softer than heavy synthetic cords, the #6 thickness gives added durability for daily-wear necklaces and bracelets when tied and finished correctly.

• Robust for standard wear when properly knotted and secured.
• Natural fibres allow slight elasticity to absorb tension.
• Use jewellery glue at knots for added longevity if desired.
• Replace or restring pieces after extended heavy use to maintain safety.

How do the pre-threaded needles and colour assortment speed up my projects?

Each 2m card arrives with a needle already attached, eliminating tedious threading and letting you start knotting or stringing immediately. The five-colour variety helps you coordinate thread to bead colour so knots are less visible and final pieces look more professional.

• Needles pre-attached to each card for instant use.
• Five strategic colours: White, Black, Grey, Light Pink, Brown.
• 2 meters per colour ideal for necklaces, rosaries, and repair work.
• Great for sampling colour matches before larger purchases.
