DB728 is a 100g bulk quantity of Miyuki 11/0 Delica seed beads in Opaque Lilac Mauve — a dusty, muted purple that earns its place in serious bead weaving work. Precision tube-cut in Japan, Delicas are the go-to cylinder bead for tight, even tension and crisp pattern registration.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent color that holds its own in graphic, high-contrast designs without any shimmer or depth competing for attention.
This size and shape excels in loom weaving and off-loom stitches like peyote and brick stitch, where Delicas' uniform walls lock together cleanly — use DB728 to anchor the muted tones in a botanical or geometric pattern, or pair it with deeper purples and neutrals in herringbone rope bracelets built for regular wear.
