Flatback Half Pearls | 10mm Square | Ivory | 25g Pack - Card & Craft Decor

Set a clean geometric pearl into your work with these 10mm square half pearls. The top is a soft pyramid dome that catches light along four ridges, the colour is a warm ivory, and the flat back sits level on card, MDF and frames. A square reads more architectural than a round pearl, which makes it useful for borders, grids and corner details. Supplied in a 25 g pack.

Before You Buy

• The pack is sold by weight, so the piece count varies and is not stated.
• The colour is ivory, not pure white. The row previously listed White and has been corrected from the photo.
• These are glue-on and have no adhesive backing.
• Because the top is domed, the square looks slightly smaller from directly above than its 10mm footprint.

How to Use

1. Mark a light pencil line where the border should run.
2. Apply a dot of glue to the surface rather than to the pearl.
3. Place each square with the edges parallel to your line.
4. Butt the squares up against each other for an unbroken band, or space them evenly.
5. Leave flat until the glue has set.

Frequently Asked Questions

How wide is each square?
Each pearl is 10 mm along each side with a domed top. They come in a 25 g pack, sold by weight, so the piece count is not fixed.

How is a square half pearl different from a round one?
A square sits flush against its neighbour, so you can build an unbroken band or a grid. A round pearl always leaves a small gap between pieces.

Can I glue these to a mirror or a glass frame?
They can be glued to smooth surfaces with a clear jewellery adhesive. Test one piece first, as we do not verify bond strength on glass.

Is the colour white or cream?
It is a warm ivory. Set beside a pure white pearl the difference is visible.
