Preciosa Ornela 12/0 three-cut seed beads in opaque black bring serious light-catching texture to small-scale work — each bead is cut from a glass tube, giving it faceted edges that catch light even in the deepest, darkest colorway. One hank gives you a generous working supply of these 1.8–2.0 mm Bohemian-made beads.
The opaque black finish delivers solid, non-translucent color with zero murkiness — just clean, graphic black that holds its own in any design.

What to make with them
The three-cut faceting makes these ideal for bead embroidery and loomwork where you want subtle sparkle without metallic finishes, and their 12/0 size suits fine peyote or brick stitch pieces — think Victorian-inspired collars, gothic cuffs, or detailed beaded fringe on wearable art.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 12/0. Each bead measures approximately 1.9 mm across with a 0.60 mm (approx.) hole. These round seed beads are made using Preciosa's tube-cutting and hot-polishing process, which gives them a gently rounded shape and consistent hole size that works beautifully for loom work, off-loom bead weaving, bead embroidery, and general stringing projects. Use them anywhere you need classic Czech rocailles—from intricate peyote and brick stitch to fringe, edging, and multi-strand designs. Not a toy. Not intended for children under 15 years. Seed beads should be kept away from small children due to the risk of swallowing or inhalation.
