Preciosa Ornela True Cut seed beads in opaque gray bring a faceted edge to the classic 11/0 rocaille — each bead is cut from a glass tube, giving it a single flat face that catches light differently than a standard round seed bead. One hank gives you a serious working supply of this versatile neutral.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent gray with no depth or glow — just clean, graphic color that holds its own in bold geometric patterns or grounds a more complex palette.

What to make with them
The True Cut facet makes these a natural choice for peyote and brick stitch work where that subtle glint adds texture without overwhelming a design, and they're equally at home strung in loom work or woven into fringe where the flat face creates a quiet shimmer along the drape.
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.
