BEADNOVA 8mm Colorful Lava Rock Stone Gemstone Semi Precious Stone Beads Round Loose Beads for Jewelry Making Findings Accessories (240pcs, Assorted Colors Box Set)

Great quality lava beads for diffuser bracelets. The beads hold essential oils very well. The white lava does discolor with dark colored essential oils but a little soap and water can help, The hole is big enough to hide the knot of the bracelet. The price is fair and it comes in a reusable box. The beads don’t have a strong smell and the colors do not bleed. If you are mailing a bracelet with these beads, make sure you package them well otherwise the beads could break. Only happened to me once.

wife responding - these made great bracelets for the men in my family. perfect. rugged and just manly looking in bracelet form

These are lovely and came in a nice case. Except it says that the hole size is between 2mm and 3mm. Definitely smaller than that. Still pretty happy with them.

These beads are great quality, they are packed nicely in a lovely plastic divider box, and colors are great! I am very pleased with these beads! They absorb essential oils quite nicely!

I loved the idea of having some options in color. When combined with some other beads that I had left over from other projects, each color was enough to make one bracelet. The colors allow the wearers to have unique bracelets and enjoy their essential oils at the same time.

Out of ALL the colored lava beads I have purchased, these have been my favorite! Other brands have had paint filling in the holes, or they are too rough. Not these!!!!!! They are still porous for your essential oils, but not rough against the skin either. I used the pink ones and purple ones for my mala. 💕

I like these lava rock stones but after reading in my essential oil group that the lava rocks this member was using were completed covered with wax that I decided to heat water to a boil then put my rocks in the hot water. I did that three times. Each time the pot was covered with wax. After washing them three times I soaked them in Thieves Household cleaner. Thankfully, they do absorb essential oils. If I would not have seen the post I would have been very disappointed with the stones not absorbing essential oils.

Just as described. I've ordered from Beadnova 3 times for lava beads to make my aromatherapy (essential oil) jewelry. Beads are not waxy preventing them from picking up oils like some others. Great product, great price.
