English term or phrase: seed pearls
Come nelle due domande precedenti, si tratta della descrizione di un altro abito da sposa.
It was adorned with some ten thousand seed pearls – all of which were stitched on by hand.
Queste sono perle vere e proprie, ma cercando in vari siti trovo solo come traducente "perline" essendo di piccole dimensioni. Il problema è che si confonderebbe con altre perline ornamentali.

perline


Explanation:
seed pearl
n. perlina ( f.), perla ( f.) scaramazza
http://www.sapere.it/sapere/dizionari/traduzioni/Inglese-Ita...

Qui c'è il termine inglese e quello italiano:
'La gemma, un quarzo varietà corniola, è una perlina
riadattata in un castone rimaneggiato.
The gemstone, carnelian quartz, is a seed pearl
adapted into a reshaped mounting'
http://www.arcogem.it/docs/catalogo_mostra.pdf

Anche qui:
'Le perline poste al centro sono in Ematite
Seed-pearls placed at the center are in hematite
