TierraCast™ Jewelry Findings
Solutions for large hole beads

Price List
TierraCast™ is one of the most popular companies for quality jewelry findings. TierraCast™, seeing the wild popularity of glass bead lampworking, has created a line of findings specifically designed to complement handmade glass beads and their larger holes. As one of world's leading innovators in findings design, with their full selection of caps, spacers, bars, loops, bails and the clever BeadAligner™, TierraCast findings will make your beads show their best as they nest next to each other in beautiful alignment.

Made with high quality lead free Britannia Pewter, each finding is expertly plated in bright or antique gold, rhodium, silver or copper for long lasting beauty and durability.

Make pendants and earrings on Bead Bars using caps, spacers and loops, all designed to match the holes in your beads made on 3/32" mandrels. Use BeadAligners™ to center larger bead holes for stringing so that your handmade glass beads hang in alignment with the other beads that have smaller diameter holes. Spacers and Caps, with their proper hole diameters, do not flop around and align perfectly to complement you glass beads on BeadPens™. Use Caps to cover up slightly imperfect bead holes on lampworked glass beads.

Like a picture frame on a fine painting, TierraCast™ quality findings frame your beads to showcase their beauty.

What is the size of a Large Bead Hole?
Price List

Bead Bars

Much thicker than simple head pins, thicker diameter Bead Bars align the bead to the other Large Hole findings. There is a decorative ball at one end as a stop for other findings and a hole at the other end to attach earring loops, jump rings and wirework.

Bar Links

Similar to the Bead Bars, except there are holes at both ends to connect parts in both directions.

Spacers

The perfect decorative element to separate beads and enhance overall design. Hole diameter matches Bead Bars and BeadPens™

Beads

Beads have the same large hole as Spacers and can be used as Spacers. The difference is they are wider on the Bead Bar or Bar Link.

Caps

Place a cap at either end of the bead to frame the bead, and because it is slightly concave on the side that goes against the bead, it will cover slight imperfections that many lampworked beads have. It also creates a nice finished look as the first or last component on a pendant or earring, whether or not it is used next to a bead. Hole diameter matches Bead Bars and BeadPens™.

Glue-In Caps with Loops and Bails

These delightful little caps have either a small loop for stringing and wirework or a bail large enough to also work for chain. The post opposite the loop or bail is glued into the bead's hole for a quick, clean and simple, yet elegant look.

Glue-In Caps

Matching caps for the opposite end of the bead to Glue-In Caps with Loops or Bails make for a well finished look.

BeadAligners™

Beautiful enough by themselves, they can be used for regular stringing and wirework, but were specifically designed to work with Large Hole findings. BeadAligners™ have a short post on one side and have a smaller diameter hole than the Large Hole findings. The post inserts into either a Large Hole Spacer or a bead with a large hole to secure its alignment to the bead hole. When the bead and findings are then strung or put together with head pins or wirework, the BeadAligner™ keeps the bead from flopping around and looking crooked.

Bails

These Bails from TierraCast are complementing designs to the Large Hole selection of findings.

Earring Loops, Head Pins and Jump Rings

To complement the line of findings designed for glass beads, we also offer a selection of TierraCast™ standard findings to complete your work.
