Half-drilled shell pearls
Shell pearls for jewelry making
Shell pearls usually consist of a glass bead or teardrop, which is coated with a layer of genuine and durable mother-of-pearl lacquer for a high quality finish. The pearl itself is not a genuine freshwater pearl, but it has got the same beautiful colour and shimmering surface. Shell pearls are available in many colours as the mother-of-pearl lacquer can be mixed with different pigments. Shell pearl teardrops are especially popular as necklace pendants, for earrings or as bracelet charms. You can easily provide half-drilled shell pearls with an eyelet by gluing an eyepin into the hole. Then they can easily be fastened to a piece of jewelry or an earstud.

Beads with a Single Hole – Half-Drilled Beads for Jewellery Design and Decoration
Beads with a single hole, also known as half-drilled beads, are very popular in both jewellery making and creative craft projects. Unlike traditional fully-drilled beads, they are only drilled partway through from one side, opening up unique design possibilities.
What Are Half-Drilled Beads Used For?
Half-drilled beads are mainly used for creating elegant pendants, earrings, rings, and brooches. Because the hole only goes partway into the bead, it is easy to glue a pin or setting into the bead, allowing it to appear as a seamless, complete unit without any visible holes. This gives the jewellery a particularly exclusive and refined look, which is especially prized in high-end designs.
Why Choose Beads with a Single Hole?
The main advantage of choosing half-drilled beads is the greater design freedom they offer. They allow for a "floating" effect, where the bead appears to sit freely on a pin or chain. In addition, the bead's surface remains smooth and uninterrupted, with no visible thread or wire disrupting the look.
Perfect Beads for Creative Projects
Whether you are crafting classic pearl earrings, modern pendants or personalised gifts, half-drilled beads are an excellent choice. They are available in a wide range of materials, including genuine pearls, glass, crystal, and gemstones, so you can find exactly the right bead for your project.
