The Kraken joins the Octagon Series with a faceted range of beads in three different styles. Familiar in concept but distinctly different in character, the Krakens bring the Eightfold's obsession with having eight sides on everything to a space that has been pretty much dominated by round beads since the start.
The lineup includes solid titanium Kraken beads, lightweight hollow Titanium Ghosts, and the elongated Kraken Lites in Ultem, ebony, and green sandalwood. Whether you prefer the momentum of solid metal or the nimble feel of lighter materials, each version delivers the same unmistakable octagonal profile and a fresh tactile experience. The beads themselves are well rounded on the corners and the edges are muted, making them comfortable to manipulate despite the faceted shape. The solid titanium Kraken beads will be available with the "aroundsquare" word mark.. other beads are unbranded.
