Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in Turquoise Blue AB arrive in a generous 6-hank quantity, giving you the volume you need for large-scale weaving, fringe work, or any project where running out mid-row isn't an option. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, these rocailles bring that reliable Czech consistency in size and shape — 2.0 to 2.2 mm — that thread-workers and loom weavers count on.
The transparent turquoise base catches light on its own, but the strong AB finish layers dramatic rainbow reflection over it — shifting from aqua to violet to gold depending on the angle, with the kind of iridescence that reads as movement even in finished work.

What to make with them
Six hanks is the right call for peyote or brick stitch cuffs, dense bead embroidery on statement collars, or full fringe panels where the AB shimmer can cascade and catch light with every shift. The coastal blue-to-rainbow shift also makes these a natural for netted or right-angle weave pieces inspired by mermaid-core and oceanic aesthetics.
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.
