We are gradually changing over our stock of Swarovski crystal bicone beads to the NEW sparkly Swarovski xillion bead as the old 5301 bicone becomes unavailable. Judging on current ordering availability from Swarovski it looks as though about 75% of our stock will be in xillion beads by the end of September. The new bead is copyright protected and with so many counterfeits on the market you can see why Swarovski have launched the new shape with extra cuts for increased brilliance.
All sizes except the 2.5mm bicone bead will be switching to the xillion cut.
They work well together but if you need the old 5301 shape specifically, please get in touch. I’ll post a picture of the new xillion beads in a few days but for nostalgia’s sake here are the old favourites.
