Natural Ethiopian Opal Wheel Beads – Faceted Fire Gemstone Strand Jewelry Supply

Ethiopian White Opal wheel beads — a shape you don't see in every supply shop, which is exactly the point. The wide flat wheel profile (also called coin or disc) sits dramatically on the strand and catches light across its entire face. These are statement beads. A single strand makes a complete bold necklace on its own.

The faceted rim of each bead creates a prismatic edge that scatters the opal's fire outward. Where rondelles stack quietly, wheels command attention.

Strand details:
• Natural Ethiopian Welo White Opal — untreated
• Wheel / coin shape, straight drill through center
• Faceted rim finish
• 16-inch full strand
• Sizes: 3.5×9mm, 4×8mm, 4×11mm (select from dropdown)
• Sold per individual strand

At 16 inches you have enough material for a full statement necklace in this shape — a rare find. Jewelry designers working in the boho, celestial, and coastal aesthetic spaces will find these immediately usable.

Ethiopian opal wheel beads at this size range represent a niche inventory that's hard to source elsewhere. If you've been looking for something genuinely different to build around, this is it.
