DB791 is a size 11/0 Miyuki Delica in dyed opaque red — a 9g tube of precision tube-cut Japanese glass cylinders that lock together with the tight, even tolerances Delicas are known for.
The special opaque matte finish gives this red a velvety, light-absorbing depth — no shine, just rich, saturated color that reads bold and grounded at the same time.
Delicas are the go-to for loom work and peyote stitch where uniform alignment matters, and this red earns its place in geometric patterns, holiday motifs, and any design that needs a strong, clean color anchor.
