What we liked

  • + 40 colors at a low price, an inexpensive way to try chip bead rings and earrings
  • + Findings come in both gold and silver tones, so finished pieces can match either metal
  • + Listing is upfront that most chips are natural stone and a small share are dyed

Trade-offs

  • - No pliers, wire or ring mandrel included, so wire-wrapped rings need extra supplies
  • - Only 18 chips per color, and the dyed stones may fade according to the listing
