Miyuki's 15/0 Delica in Palladium Plate brings serious metallic presence to the smallest Delica size — precision tube-cut in Japan for the uniform shape and consistent hole size that makes tight, even beadwork possible. This 50g bag gives you real working quantity of a finish that reads sleek and cool-toned without leaning into ordinary silver.
The Special Palladium Plate finish delivers a cool, refined metallic surface — distinct from standard silver plate, with a muted luminosity that sits somewhere between industrial and understated glam.
At 1.4–1.5mm, these are ideal for peyote and brick stitch work where fine detail matters — think narrow geometric bands, Art Deco-inspired loom pieces, or intricate tubular herringbone ropes where the metallic tone carries the design without competing with other colors.
