Aroundsquare’s Titans first launched in 2016, and quickly became the standard against which other modern begleri would be compared. The shape is comfortable in the hand, with a domed top that rests easily between the fingers, and straight edges for control during play. The beads are large enough to be satisfying to play as they clack together, while the 6061 aluminum construction brings them in at a casual weight of 21g all in.
For this project, we’ve anodized the beads in a total of 10 colours including the natural aluminum colour, and have mixed the colours at random for the sets. They’re shipped blind box style for a bit of a surprise, with two randomly selected beads. Each set comes pre-strung on a piece of 550 paracord, and ships with two additional cords, and a couple of stickers.
Note that aluminum is a soft metal, and the beads will immediately begin to show wear as you play them and drop them. All of the scratches and dings will become a record of their journey with you. New is not the perfected state of these beads.. new is simply the ready, unfinished state. Rather than seeing the wear as damage, we encourage you to view this as part of the finishing process itself. It’s a patina, developed through honest use. You’re putting your own marks on these beads and cultivating something uniquely personalized with them.
