Pewter Jardin Barrel Bead is designed and manufactured in the USA by TierraCast. The outside measurements of each bead is 6mm high x 8mm wide and 5.4mm long (parallel to the thread hole) forming a decorative organic barrel shape. The large 4x2mm interior dimension makes it great for larger stringing materials with the added bonus of being able to crimp in place or secure ends.
TierraCast Antique Pewter (PA-40) components are actually not a plated finish, but rather a chemical oxidization of unplated pewter castings and lacquered to resist tarnish.
