Preciosa Ornela Terra Vista Seed Bead Opaque Stone Dust 11/0

Preciosa Ornela Terra Vista seed beads in Stone Dust are a pale, chalky grey that reads almost white, like fine dust on sun-bleached stone. These 11/0 rocailles are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, and come in a 6-hank bulk bundle.

Terra Vista is Preciosa's palette of 19 soft, subdued shades inspired by nature: rose, earth, ocean, lichen and stone. Every color is opaque with a quiet, gentle surface, and the finish is rated 3 for durability (moderate), so keep it away from abrasives and harsh chemicals.

What to make with them

At 11/0, these are the workhorse size for bead weaving: peyote, brick stitch, herringbone and loom work all sit comfortably here, and they're fine enough for detailed bead embroidery and delicate fringe. Because the whole palette is designed to harmonize, Stone Dust layers easily with its stone companions Moonstone, Whispering Grey and Stone Grey, or with shades from the other Terra Vista families, for tonal gradients and calm, nature-inspired designs.
