8SB309R: CZ Seed Bead Gunmetal 8/0-1HK

$615 $1025

Preciosa Ornela's 8/0 Gunmetal seed beads are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, giving each bead a slightly faceted edge that catches light in a way standard rocailles don't. At 2.8–3.2 mm, this size threads up fast and works beautifully across a wide range of structural and freeform techniques.

Despite being opaque, the transparent finish classification means the glass itself has a glassy, light-interactive quality — the gunmetal color reads as a deep, cool grey-black with an almost metallic undertone without any added coating to chip or fade.

What to make with them

Use them in peyote or brick stitch for jewelry with a dark, architectural feel, or incorporate them into wire-wrapped or strung designs alongside sterling and oxidized metals where the gunmetal tone ties the palette together seamlessly.
