Preciosa Ornela 9/0 three-cut seed beads in transparent ruby — each tiny bead is cut from a glass tube, giving it multiple facets that catch and scatter light in a way a standard round seed bead simply can't. One hank gets you a serious working supply of a rich, classic red.
The transparent finish means you're seeing straight into the glass itself — deep ruby color with no coating between you and the light, so the facets read as bright flashes rather than a flat surface.

What to make with them
The three-cut faceting makes these a natural for bead embroidery and loom work where you want subtle sparkle woven into a larger piece, and their 2.4–2.8 mm size sits comfortably alongside standard 9/0 rounds in off-loom stitches like peyote or brick stitch for texture contrast.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 09/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.6 mm across with a 0.90 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.
