Miyuki's 11/0 Hex Cut Delica in 24kt Gold Plate brings a precision tube-cut faceted shape together with rich gold-colored plating — the hex geometry catches light at every angle in a way a round bead simply can't.
The 24-karat gold plating reads as a deep, classic gold with genuine warmth and luster — dressy without being flashy.
These hex Delicas are a natural for loom and peyote work where the flat faceted sides lock together cleanly and the gold reads as a continuous metallic surface; they're equally strong as accent columns in brick stitch earrings or as the focal thread in a kumihimo braid where the facets add texture without bulk.
