Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead True Cut Opaque Powder Blue 11/0

$3559 $5931

SKU: 11SB172-C

Preciosa Ornela True Cut seed beads in opaque light blue come in a generous 6-hank quantity, giving you the volume you need for large-scale weaving, loom work, or any project that eats through 11/0s fast. That single-facet cut catches light the way a standard round rocaille can't, adding quiet sparkle without changing your bead count or tension.

The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent light blue — a clean, graphic color with no depth variation, so your pattern reads exactly as you designed it.

What to make with them

The True Cut's faceted profile makes it a natural for peyote or brick stitch pieces where you want subtle texture and shimmer built right into the structure, and the light blue reads beautifully in geometric loom bands, woven cuffs, or fringe work with a coastal or retro mid-century feel.

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.
