Fuse Bead Color Charts with Official Codes & RGB

Use the chart for the brand and bead size printed on the package you plan to buy. Perler Regular, Perler Mini, Hama Midi, Hama Mini, and Hama Maxi are separate product systems with their own codes, pegboards, and melt behavior, so similar screen colors do not make them interchangeable. Start with the exact brand page, use its filters to match your product line, and treat a cross-brand suggestion as a candidate to verify rather than an answer. If a package label and a shop listing disagree, trust the printed code on the package. Beadary splits its fuse bead color charts by brand precisely so that this first decision stays simple and nothing important is averaged away.

No screen can promise that: a monitor emits light while a plastic bead reflects it, and lighting, production batch, finish, and ironing all shift the final appearance. That is why every swatch in these bead color charts carries an evidence label telling you whether it is a measured value, a community screen reference, or a calculated estimate. Use the code and product line for purchasing decisions; use the swatch for browsing, pattern previews, and shortlisting candidates — and expect the fused result to sit slightly darker or warmer than the loose bead in the bag. Read the full color accuracy guide.

A nearest-color calculation can propose a substitute, but it is not proof of a physical match. The two brands use different catalogs, materials, and finishes, and a mathematically close swatch can still look wrong next to its neighbors in a finished piece. Compare solid finishes only, check the reported color distance, and fuse a small test sample under the light in which the piece will be displayed. Transparent, glow, metallic, pearl, and striped beads need visual inspection rather than a flat HEX comparison, and the same caution applies to substitutes suggested between any two brands, not just Perler and Hama.

Each chart stores source links and a verification date, and automated checks protect expected code counts, statuses, and missing values whenever the data changes. Page copy explains which claims come from official catalogs and which come from measured or community data, so an update never blurs that boundary. A new manufacturer listing is reviewed as evidence; it does not silently overwrite an older identity or quietly turn an estimate into a measurement. The Artkal guide follows the same rule across five separate physical series and keeps catalog identity counts separate from matchable color values.
