Japanese Seed Beads

Seed Bead is a generic term for any small bead. Usually rounded in shape, seed beads are most commonly used for loom and off-loom bead weaving. Seed beads are sometimes called E-beads. This refers to the shape of the bead. Japanese seed beads are the highest quality seed bead on the market today. Japanese seed beads are perfectly consistent in size from bead to bead, and have more durable finishes. The Japanese beads are easier to use because they are more uniform and have a larger and more consistently-sized hole.
