Preciosa Ornela 9/0 three-cut seed beads in transparent amethyst bring faceted sparkle to a classic seed bead size — each bead is cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, giving it multiple flat faces that catch and scatter light in a way a standard round seed bead simply can't.
The transparent finish means you're seeing pure, clear amethyst glass color straight through, with light passing all the way in and back out across every cut facet.

What to make with them
Their faceted surface makes these a natural choice for bead weaving projects — peyote, brick stitch, or right-angle weave — where the extra light-play adds depth without changing your bead count or thread path; they also work well strung as accent rows in loom work or knotted designs where that purple shimmer can do real visual work.
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.
