Preciosa Ornela Terra Vista seed beads in Silent Blue are a pale, airy aqua blue, the lightest shade in the ocean family. These 11/0 rocailles are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, and come by the single hank.
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.
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, Silent Blue layers easily with its ocean companions Ocean Mist, Seafoam and Deep Sea, or with shades from the other Terra Vista families, for tonal gradients and calm, nature-inspired designs.
