Metal slider beads for 5mm round leather cord.  These beads slide right onto the leather, and instantly decorate your cord to make leather necklaces, bracelets, and cord jewelry.  The opening of each slider can vary slightly in comparison to the width of the leather, so it's a good idea to have a variety on hand. That way you can mix and match the sliders and leather for the best fit.  Some beads are designed for 1 single strand of leather, and others are for using with 2 or 3 strands of leather. These work in conjunction with clasps that require a looped piece of 5mm round leather, such as the half cuff style bracelets.

Unless noted otherwise, all sliders are made from zinc that is mined in Germany or Belgium. Each piece is then electro-plated in shiny gold, brass, copper, or silver-- the silver finish uses 99.9% sterling silver. All of the slider beads are manufactured in the European Union.
