Preciosa Ornela Pips California Night 5X7mm

Preciosa Ornela pressed glass Pip beads in California Night bring a warm, earthy mix of browns, tans, and golds to a 5x7mm shape that's just substantial enough to anchor a design without overwhelming it — 50 pieces per pack.

The surface coating shifts the color and sheen in ways that vary across the mix, giving each bead a slightly individual quality that reads as intentional rather than inconsistent.

What to make with them

The Pip's curved, petal-like form works beautifully stitched flat in peyote or brick stitch where the shape creates a natural scalloped edge, and it's equally at home strung or wire-wrapped into earrings and pendants where that warm, desert-toned palette leans into Southwestern or boho aesthetics — just handle with some care, as the coating is medium-low durability and can wear with repeated friction.

The finish on these beads is delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to friction, moisture, skin acids, and harsh chemicals to preserve the surface coating.
