Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead 3-cut Color Lined Blue-purple 12/0

Preciosa Ornela 12/0 3-cut seed beads in color-lined blue-purple come in a 10-hank quantity, giving you serious working supply of a shade that shifts between cool blue and moody purple depending on the light. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, each faceted bead catches light at multiple angles — a noticeable step up from a standard round seed bead.

The color-lined finish places a blue-purple inner core inside a transparent bead, so the color reads with depth and dimension rather than sitting flat on the surface.

What to make with them

The 3-cut faceting makes these especially effective in loom and off-loom weaving — peyote, brick stitch, and herringbone — where the angled faces create a subtle shimmer across the finished textile. They're also well-suited to fringe, netting, and bead embroidery where the 1.8–2.0 mm size threads smoothly and the color-lined depth rewards close inspection.
