Preciosa Ornela 3-cut seed beads in a 12/0 size bring the light-catching facets of cut glass to a small, versatile format — and this opaque turquoise blue delivers that in a color with serious staying power.
The opaque finish reads as a solid, flat-faced turquoise blue with no translucency, giving each faceted surface a crisp, graphic pop rather than a glassy glow.

What to make with them
The three cuts on each bead make them especially effective in loom and off-loom beadweaving like peyote or brick stitch, where the facets catch light at shifting angles across a finished piece. They're also a natural fit for Southwestern-style fringe work, stringing, and embroidery where a defined turquoise tone anchors the design.
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.
