❤️ Shape & size details
-
It’s a 3D heart, so not just flat like a stamped charm — it has volume and gentle curves on the front and back, giving it a soft, rounded appearance.
-
Width (side to side): about 12 mm — that’s quite noticeable, roughly the size of a small coin.
-
Depth (front to back): about 5 mm, so it’s not chunky but has enough thickness to look substantial from the side.
This gives it a low-dome, puffy heart shape — elegant and not overly bulky.
Material & finish
-
Made from stainless steel (often 304 or 316L grade):
-
Hypoallergenic: great for people with sensitive skin.
-
Won’t tarnish or rust.
-
Keeps its polish beautifully over time.
-
-
Finish options:
-
High-polish mirror shine (most common)
-
Brushed satin matte
-
IP plated in gold, rose gold, or black
-
➿ Hole details
-
The bead has a 3 mm hole, quite large relative to bead size, making it very versatile.
-
The hole runs through the 5 mm depth — meaning it’s drilled from front to back (the domed face through to the back).
-
This keeps the heart shape visible when strung, as it will sit sideways on a cord or chain, rather than hanging point-down like a pendant.
Because of the wide hole, it can be strung on:
-
3 mm leather cord
-
Thick braided cotton or hemp
-
Multi-strand cord
-
Snake chain or European-style charm bracelet chains
Design look & uses
-
Larger size (12 mm) makes it ideal as a centerpiece bead in bracelets or chokers.
-
Works beautifully with:
-
Gemstone rounds or faceted beads
-
Glass beads
-
Larger metal spacer beads
-
-
Because it sits sideways, it adds a unique profile to necklaces and wrap bracelets.
Typical uses:
✅ Leather cuff bracelet with a few statement hearts
✅ Large-hole charm for an interchangeable bead bracelet
✅ Center bead on a choker or minimalist chain necklace
✅ Mixed into chunky beaded designs as an accent of steel shine
✅ Why people like it
-
Modern, clean design with classic heart symbolism.
-
Stainless steel means it’s practical, long-lasting, hypoallergenic, and maintenance-free.
-
The size is bold enough to catch the eye, but the flat back keeps it comfortable to wear.
