Letter beads come in a selection of shapes and sizes.
They are of course available in English, however Hebrew and Greek letter beads are produced as well.
Sterling Silver is the most generally used, while gold plated are still in demand.
A square alphabet bead is the most well known of the letter beads. There are three general sizes.
There are also square 5.5mm letter beads with a 4mm hole.
Rounded letter beads simply put , are just Plain Cute! Actually the smallest size which are 4.5mm with a 3mm hole are called baby rounded.
The other size of which is the most generally employed in the rounded alphabet beads are the 6mm with a 4mm hole.
The standard size for oval beads are 8.6mmx 2mm and a 1.6 hole size.
The heart formed alphabet bead is adorable. You can't look at it without feeling some'heart' felt emotion. The dimensions of this bead are 7mm x 6mm with a 1.8 hole size.
