Bijuland is a wholesale bead and craft materials supplier based in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The Clear Transparent Glass Cabochons category (прозрачни стъклени кабошони — prozrachni stakleni kaboshoni) covers fully clear glass dome elements with a flat back — available in a Big Package and a Small Package — within the broader Glass Cabochons section. Wholesale and retail purchase available, with shipping across Bulgaria and Europe.
What are clear glass cabochons used for?
Clear transparent glass cabochons (прозрачни стъклени кабошони) are fully colourless glass domes — the glass has no tint, colour, or opacity. Unlike coloured cabochons, which are decorative elements valued for their own colour and lustre, clear glass cabochons function primarily as a lens placed over something else: a printed image, photograph, illustration, collage element, or patterned fabric that sits beneath the flat back of the cabochon and is viewed through the curved transparent dome. The convex dome acts as a magnifying lens — it enlarges and brings visual depth to the image beneath, giving flat printed artwork a three-dimensional, jewel-like quality when set in a pendant, ring, or earring. This technique — known as photo cabochon jewellery or image cabochon jewellery — is one of the most widely used DIY jewellery making methods: a round or oval image is printed or cut to size, glued to the flat back of the clear cabochon using cabochon glue or resin, and the assembly is then set in a matching metal bezel or glued to a flat-pad finding to produce a finished pendant, ring, or earring in a matter of minutes. The glass dome also protects the image from wear, moisture, and handling. Clear glass cabochons are available in a range of sizes — typically 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm, 25mm, and 30mm in round form, with oval and other shapes also available — each size compatible with a corresponding bezel setting sized to match.
How are clear glass cabochons used in practice, and which package is right?
To use a clear glass cabochon over an image: print or cut the image to the exact diameter of the cabochon; apply a thin, even layer of cabochon glue, dimensional glue, or clear resin to the flat back of the cabochon; press the image face-up onto the adhesive and allow to cure fully before handling. Once set, place the cabochon image-side down into a matching metal bezel setting, or glue the flat back of the assembled cabochon to a flat-pad ring blank, earring stud, hair clip, or brooch back using jewellery-grade adhesive. Bijuland stocks compatible metal findings and bezel settings in the Metal Elements and Findings section. The Big Package contains a larger quantity at a lower cost per piece — suited to makers producing photo cabochon jewellery in volume, craft studios running workshops, and resellers. The Small Package is suited to individual makers sampling a size or producing in smaller quantities. Bijuland ships from Plovdiv, Bulgaria and supplies jewellery makers, craft studios, and bead resellers across Bulgaria and Europe.
