Preciosa Ornela True Cut seed beads in opaque medium blue bring a faceted edge to the classic 11/0 rocaille — each bead is cut from a glass tube, adding a subtle glint that a standard round seed bead simply doesn't have. This listing is for one hank of size 11/0 (2.0–2.2 mm) Czech glass beads, made in Bohemia, Czechia.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent medium blue — no light passes through, so the color reads as flat and graphic, letting the cut facets do the work of catching light rather than the glass itself.

What to make with them
The True Cut's faceted surface makes it a strong choice for loom work and peyote stitch where you want texture and low-key shimmer without a metallic or lined finish; it also works well in powwow-style beadwork and appliqué where opaque, high-contrast color blocking is traditional.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 11/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.1 mm across with a 0.70 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.
