Rivoli Beads

These are my patterns and projects that use Rivoli beads. Don’t forget to check the beading supplies as well. Why not put together your own little project kit?

What Are Rivoli Beads?

Rivolis beads are also known just as Rivolis. They are usually crystal, typically round. The crystal is set into a metal backing. The manufacturing process creates a faceted crystal. So, both the front and the back of this bead have a slight point. I am cautious about referring to Rivolis as beads because they have no hole through them. However, that isn’t a problem. You simply use seed beads to create a casing that holds your Rivoli in place. Alternatively, you can glue Rivolis onto bead embroidery.

I am giving you some patterns here to get you started. Or, maybe you prefer to buy the beads from me and create your own designs.
