Brass capsule beads are sometimes used in costume jewelry to give a liquid silver effect to the piece.  These capsule beads are available in silver-plate.

Wire spacer beads are very popular among our customers, and we have included them here for you.  Many jewelry designers will use these wire rings to subtly set off one bead from another, with a hint of a shimmer between each beads.  This is a very effective way to give the jewelry a more expensive look, without much additional expense to the designer.
