Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead True Cut Color Lined Amethyst Aurora Borealis Finish 11/0

Preciosa Ornela True Cut 11/0 seed beads in Color Lined Amethyst AB come in a full hank of Czech glass cut from tube, giving each tiny bead a faceted edge that catches light the way a standard round rocaille simply can't. That extra sparkle, paired with an amethyst-lined core and AB finish, makes this a go-to when a project needs depth and shimmer built right into the bead.

The transparent glass shell lets light travel through to a rich amethyst-colored lining at the hole, while the AB coating lays a shifting iridescent bloom across the outer surface — the result reads as purple from straight on and shifts toward violet and cool blue as the angle changes.

What to make with them

The faceted cut makes these especially effective in peyote and brick stitch, where the flat faces align and amplify the shimmer across the finished surface. They're equally well-suited to strung fringe, loom work, and embroidery where the cut edges catch directional light and add texture without changing the bead's 11/0 sizing or behavior.
