Beading Tools are tools for Jewelry Setting and are used to form beads that hold diamonds, pearls, and stones in mounting settings.
Glardon-Vallorbe beading tools are far superior to other makes of
beading tools in hardness and durability, so they hold their shape
longer, keeping resharpening to a minimum. Each Glardon-Vallorbe beading
tool features a perfectly formed calotte, the proper name for the edges
of the tool, with a rounded outer edge and a sharp inner edge. This is
a distinctive feature of the Glardon-Vallorbe beading tool not found on
other makes. When viewed under magnification this feature is quite
evident and makes for a tool that is ready to use out of the box as it
requires no pre-polishing. Glardon Vallorbe beading tools are made with
chromium steel that has been hardened to 64-66 HRC. Glardon-Vallorbe
beading tools give diamond setters a more productive tool for the same
or better cost than most other beading tool brands.
Each Glardon-Vallorbe beading tool is trademarked with Glardon-Vallorbe
separated by the factory trademark fish logo on one side with Swiss
Made on the other. Each beading tool side is also marked with its size
from size 00 thru 22. Beading tools are called Perloirs in French, Korneisen in German and Perleros in Spanish.
