These Preciosa Ornela 6/0 E beads in opaque powder blue come on 6 strands of Czech glass cut from tube, giving you a generous working supply of a shade that earns its keep across seasons and styles. At 3.7–4.3 mm, the size is substantial enough to work up quickly and show off stitch structure without disappearing into the design.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent powder blue — quiet enough to read as soft and airy, strong enough to anchor a graphic color block without muddying the palette.

What to make with them
The chunky scale of a 6/0 makes these well-suited for kumihimo braids, knotted macramé-bead hybrids, and children's jewelry where a bold, readable bead is a must. They're also a reliable choice for weaving accent rows in peyote or brick stitch when you want a color pop that holds its own against smaller seed beads.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 06/0- E Beads. Each bead measures approximately 4.1 mm across with a 1.10 mm 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.
