Griffin 100%natural silk has been the traditional material for stringing beads for centuries. Pure natural silk feels incredibly soft and smooth. Silk threads have good tensile strength and little stretch and can therefore be easily worked with and knotted. Necklaces made with natural silk drape naturally around the contours of the body and always project a look of elegance and beauty.
NylonPower is a strong, specially treated nylon with double the tensile strength of conventional nylon. NylonPower Bead Cord stretches only about 3-4% under tension and will return to its original length when released. This property is a great advantage when beading, because knots can be placed very firmly and permanently.
Griffin 100% natural silk thread and Griffin Powernylon cord are available in 21 natural colours and 13 different thicknesses and comes in a 2m carded packet (approx 79”).
