The CzechMates cabochons measure 7mm and have 2 holes.  Their pretty domed shaped makes them very versatile and easy to incorporate into a multitude of designs.  They have the same distance between their holes as the rest of the CzechMates multi-hole beads to maximise your design options.  Their domed shape also makes them very easy to combine with lots of other beads.

They come in over 60 colours including matt metallics, suede and the vibrant saturated metallic colours.
