Colorfastness chart

Here at BERRIESEED, we only use high-quality glass seed beads in the designs of our waistbeads. While our beads are designed to resist any fading, some beads come equipped with additional coatings or finishes added onto the beads; those additional coatings can potentially begin to wear off over extended time. 

An example would be beads featuring an "AB" or Aurora Borealis coating or beads with a metallic coating. The beads will not lose color, but the coating or finish can appear slightly different than originally viewed.

Too much to take info in? No worries! We've curated this chart below to help you quickly reference.

Shop without worry: every waistbead listing includes a link back to this page.
