Preciosa Ornela 10/0 seed beads in Opaque Medium Red, sold by the hank, are a workhorse color straight out of Bohemia — the kind of red that anchors a design rather than hiding in it.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent color with no light bleed-through, giving you a strong, graphic red that reads clearly from a distance.
Their 10/0 size makes them well-suited for loom work, peyote, and brick stitch where you want crisp color blocking, and they're a natural choice for powwow regalia, holiday statement pieces, or any beadwork that calls for a dependable, high-contrast red.

Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 10/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.3 mm across with a 0.80 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.
