Miyuki's 15/0 Delica in Metallic Raspberry AB packs serious color into a precision-cut 1.4–1.5 mm cylinder — the AB finish adds an iridescent shift over that deep raspberry metallic base, giving you complexity without sacrificing the tight, uniform geometry Delicas are known for.
The solid metallic surface reads rich and dramatic, with the aurora borealis coating pulling cool spectral flashes across the raspberry ground depending on the light.
At size 15/0 these are ideal for fine loomwork, intricate peyote or brick stitch graphs where pixel-sharp color placement matters, and as a delicate accent bead in bead embroidery where the metallic finish catches light against matte or druzy surfaces.
