AVANTUS Federal Unveils Unique Antiqued Bicone Beads for Craft & Design Projects
McLean, VA – October 26, 2023 – AVANTUS Federal LLC, a leading provider of innovative solutions for both government and commercial sectors, today announced the release of their beautifully crafted antiqued bicone beads. While known for their work in areas like IT modernization and program management, AVANTUS is expanding its offerings to include high-quality craft components, starting with these distinctive beads. “We’re always looking for ways to bring value to our customers, and sometimes that means venturing into unexpected areas,” says a spokesperson for AVANTUS Federal. “We realized there was a demand for unique, high-quality beads for crafting, jewelry making, and design projects. We decided to leverage our dedication to precision and quality control – things we do for our federal contracts – and apply it to something a little different.” What are Antiqued Bicone Beads? For those unfamiliar, bicone beads are a popular choice amongst crafters. They're shaped like double cones (hence “bi-cone”), providing a smooth, symmetrical form that’s ideal for stringing, weaving, and adding a touch of elegance to various projects. What sets these bicone beads apart is the antiqued finish. “A lot of beads are super shiny and modern looking,” explains a designer who has been testing the beads. “These have a lovely, muted tone, almost like they’ve been treasured for years. It gives projects a vintage, handcrafted feel that’s really in demand right now.” The antiquing process involves a special treatment that darkens the grooves and highlights the facets of the bead, creating a subtle, aged appearance. This finish lends itself beautifully to a wide array of styles, including bohemian, rustic, vintage, and even modern minimalist designs. What Makes AVANTUS’ Beads Different? AVANTUS Federal, while not traditionally associated with craft supplies, brings a unique perspective to the market.
