Biggest face-up look in light earrings, pear vs marquise vs oval vs half-moon
Half-moons give the most face for the least weight, then marquise, then pear, then oval. Sizes like 11x15 mm half-moons or 6x9 mm pears balance presence and comfort. By stone heft, zircon feels heaviest, then topaz, then tourmaline. At 3 mm per 8 inches: zircon 26 ct, topaz 20 ct, tourmaline 17 ct.

How to choose iolite bead shapes for the deepest blue violet
Test strands under neutral daylight and a white card. Rotate each drilled bead around its hole and face to find the view that reads richest blue violet, then string so that face points outward. For rondelles, align the same face on every bead. For pears and marquise, prefer top-drilled styles and set the broad face forward before you crimp or knot.

How to label bead baggies so stone, size, hole and counts are clear
Use STONE-SHAPE-SIZE-HOLE-LENGTH/COUNT-LOT-SKU in that order, all caps with hyphens. Print on standard address or larger shipping labels in a readable font. Place the barcode at the right edge or bottom. We include examples for strands and loose pairs, plus a checklist and a size-range conversion.
