Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead Opaque Sfinx Gray 11/0

Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in opaque gray with a Sfinx finish, sold in a 6-hank quantity — this is a workhorse gray that pulls serious weight in any color palette that calls for depth and restraint.

The Sfinx coating locks a smooth, matte-adjacent color onto natural glass, giving this gray a grounded, non-reflective presence that reads as intentional rather than understated. Preciosa rates this finish 2 (resistant) for durability: it holds up to regular wear with normal care.

What to make with them

Sized at 2.0–2.2 mm and cut from glass tube in Bohemia, these rocailles are well-suited to loom work, peyote, and brick stitch projects where a neutral anchor color is doing real structural and visual work — think geometric patterns, monochromatic textile-style cuffs, or as a shadow tone in off-loom beadweaving.
