Griffin Red Silk Bead Cord on Cards is the classic choice for bead stringing and knotting projects that call for a natural-fiber cord with a vivid red accent. Each card delivers a bench-ready length of tightly woven 100% silk with a pre-attached twisted stainless steel needle, so you can start stringing immediately without re-threading or doubling the cord. Eight diameter sizes — from 0.45 mm up to 1.20 mm — let you match the cord precisely to your bead hole size and overall design scale. Made in Germany by Griffin, a longstanding name in professional bead stringing supplies.
Features
- Tightly woven 100% silk cord for smooth, controlled knotting and reliable strength.
- Each card includes approximately 2 m (6.5 ft) of cord with a pre-attached stringing needle for fast setup.
- Brilliantly dyed, color-fast red shade that holds its appearance under normal wear conditions.
- Integrated needle eliminates the need to double the thread or re-thread separate needles.
- Available in eight diameters so you can match cord size to bead hole size and design scale.
- Carded format provides bench-ready lengths suitable for most single-strand necklaces and bracelets.

Notes
- Each card typically provides enough cord for a single-strand necklace or bracelet with knots between beads.
- Select size based on bead hole diameter and the number of passes required through each bead.
- Silk is a natural product; slight dye variations between production batches are normal.
