Preciosa Ornela True Cut seed beads in size 11/0 gunmetal come in a 6-hank quantity, giving you serious working supply of one of the most versatile neutrals in a beader's arsenal. The True Cut process facets each bead as it's drawn from the glass tube, so you get that extra light-catching edge that standard rounds simply don't have.
The opaque/luster finish gives the gunmetal colorway a deep, low-sheen glow — dark and moody without being flat, with just enough surface luminosity to read as rich rather than matte.
Their faceted profile makes True Cuts especially effective in peyote and brick stitch, where the angled cuts catch light at every row transition and add texture without changing your tension. They're equally well-suited to fringe work and loom weaving where you want a dark neutral that holds its own against more saturated accent colors.

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.
