These Preciosa Ornela size 1/0 opaque black Czech glass seed beads run 6.3–6.8 mm and are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia — giving you a large-scale seed bead with clean, consistent geometry and serious visual weight. One strand is a solid starting point for any project that calls for bold, graphic black.
The opaque finish delivers a flat, solid black with no light transmission — what you see is a strong, definitive color that holds its own against metallics, brights, and naturals alike.

What to make with them
At this size, they work beautifully as statement elements in loom-woven bands, chunky fringe on bags or garments, or as anchor beads in macramé and fiber work where a larger seed bead adds structure without the bulk of a focal.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 01/0. Each bead measures approximately 6.6 mm across with a 2.00 mm 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.
