Preciosa Ornela 12/0 three-cut seed beads in opaque turquoise blue bring Bohemian craftsmanship to your work — each bead is cut from glass tube, giving it the multifaceted surface that catches light the way a standard round simply can't. One hank gives you a serious working supply of these 1.8–2.0 mm cuts.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent turquoise blue — saturated and consistent bead to bead, so the color reads boldly in finished work rather than shifting with the light behind it.

What to make with them
The three-cut surface makes these especially effective in loom and off-loom weaving — peyote, brick stitch, and square stitch all pick up extra dimension when the facets align across a flat panel. They're also a natural fit for fringe, where the cuts create that subtle shimmer-in-motion effect without any metallic finish.
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.
