These are Preciosa Ornela 9/0 three-cut seed beads in Transparent Ruby with a Sfinx finish — cut from glass tube in Bohemia and sold in a 10-hank quantity for makers who work at serious scale. The three-cut faceting catches light the way a round bead simply can't.
The Sfinx coating locks a rich, transparent ruby color onto the natural glass with high resistance to fading, so that deep red stays true through wear and time.

What to make with them
The faceted surface makes these a strong choice for loom-woven or peyote pieces where you want texture and light-play built into the structure itself, and the 10-hank volume is well suited to fringe-heavy garments, statement collars, or large-scale embroidery where running out mid-project is not an option.
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.
