Flower Petal Transparent Alexandrite 8mm

These 8mm pressed glass flower petal beads from Preciosa Ornela come 50 pieces to a pack and are cut in a soft, organic petal shape that brings a botanical dimension to beaded work. Alexandrite is a color-shifting hue that moves between soft pink and violet depending on the light, which means your finished piece reads differently from one moment to the next.

The transparent finish lets light pass straight through the glass, so the stringing material and any layers beneath show through — depth and color shift together as the light changes.

What to make with them

Use them as focal clusters in floral bead embroidery, arranging petals around a central stone or button, or string them in graduated repeats on a wire-wrapped bracelet where the transparency lets the metal show through each petal. They also work well in bead weaving as dimensional accents in Ndebele or peyote-based botanical motifs.
