Miyuki DB2261 Delica beads bring a smoky black Picasso finish to the precision-cut 11/0 Delica format — 50 grams of Japanese glass with the kind of moody, earthy character that makes a piece look like it was unearthed rather than made.
The Picasso treatment gives each bead a speckled, marbled surface that reads like polished stone — dark and smoky at its core, with irregular earthy markings that keep the color from ever looking flat.
Specifications
- Size: 11/0
- Color: Greys and Blacks
- Finish: Picasso Marbled or Stone Look
- Material: Glass, made in Japan
- Quantity: 50g
What to make with them
The uniform tube-cut shape makes these a natural choice for loom work, peyote, and brick stitch, where the consistent sizing is essential for tight, even fabric — think cuffs, amulet bags, or woven panels in a gothic or dark-academic palette. They also layer beautifully in fringe and netting designs where that stone-like surface catches light unpredictably.
