This is one set of needles that a serious person doing beadwork will want to invest in. Unlike other known brands of needles including John James brand. These needles are flexible and durable. I ordered size 12 longs (approx. 2 inches). Perfect for me to use in embroidery beading, loom work and even smaller projects. Well worth the price.

One needle was fine, the second had a very rough finish, scraping through the beads. Very disappointed! At $8 a needle one should be able to receive a flawless product.

Tulip beading needles are high quality and the best

These are my favorite needles. I put my needles through a ton of abuse and Tulip holds up the best. They do bend after a while, but I've only had one out of maybe four break, and that was after half a dozen pieces with very tight turns. Absolutely worth the investment (also it arrived a week earlier than expected so that was nice).

These are the best beading needles I have ever used. For the size they are easier to thread and I haven’t had one break. While they are expensive they are definitely worth the cost.

I have been beading for over 30 years. Only recently found Tulip needles. They are the BEST needles I have ever used. They seemed pricey at first but they rarely break and hold their shape better than any I have used before. Also very smooth thread ability. Great beading needles!

The first #12 that I tried worked great. Then the heads on the next 3 broke very quickly. I would not recommend these. After 30 years of beading, I have never used beading needles that broke so easily. Plus they are the most expensive I have ever purchased. Do not purchase the #12.

Once upon a time, I thought John James was the only needle out there. Then, my beading life changed when I risked some extra dollars on Tulip needles. I started out with size 11 and then after a couple uses, quickly bought all the sizes available. My interests tend toward multi-dimensional work, and often I needed to put a needle in an extremely tight space, so tight, I had to use pliers throughout! Normally, this kind of maneuver would result in 3 things: a busted bead, a busted ( and bent) needle and big time regret for me. However, even under the most rigorous demands, Tulip holds up far more than any other brand. They do bend, if you grip them tightly and bead for hours on end, but only slightly. I have never broken one, and never busted an eye.They are more resilient that John James, and when fresh and new have a nice little gold type finish around the eye. That wears off after several uses. With the smaller, thinner sizes like 12 and 13, the lengths are slightly different. Sometimes it's hard to tell. The size 13 are the most delicate, with the smallest eye and the most difficult to thread (for me using 2 different magnifications) but perform the same as the other sizes. When working with Delicas and trying to get that last thread woven in, without knotting and gluing, they are the "go to" for the serious beader. I would not buy another brand needle as long as Tulips are available.
