Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in opaque navy blue, sold by the hank — this is the workhorse dark blue that anchors color palettes and holds its own in dense beadwork without fading into the background.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent navy that reads as strong and graphic — no shimmer, no variation, just a reliable deep blue with real visual weight.

What to make with them
Size 11/0 rocailles are a natural fit for loom work, peyote, and brick stitch where consistent coverage and color blocking matter; the deep navy also excels as a grounding contrast color in off-loom bead embroidery and strung designs.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 11/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.1 mm across with a 0.70 mm (approx.) hole. These round seed beads are made using Preciosa's tube-cutting and hot-polishing process, which gives them a gently rounded shape and consistent hole size that works beautifully for loom work, off-loom bead weaving, bead embroidery, and general stringing projects. Use them anywhere you need classic Czech rocailles—from intricate peyote and brick stitch to fringe, edging, and multi-strand designs. Not a toy. Not intended for children under 15 years. Seed beads should be kept away from small children due to the risk of swallowing or inhalation.
