Preciosa Ornela 16/0 seed beads in opaque turquoise blue come in a generous 250g loose pack — that's serious working quantity of one of the most versatile micro-bead sizes Czech glass has to offer.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent turquoise blue that reads boldly at small scale, giving woven and stitched work clean graphic punch rather than a washed-out or glassy look.

What to make with them
At 1.3–1.4mm, these 16/0 rocailles are well suited to fine loomwork, micro-macramé inlay, and detailed bead embroidery where an 11/0 would feel too coarse — the bulk quantity also makes them a practical choice for large-format beadwoven pieces that eat through color fast.
Note: Due to their extremely small size, these micro beads may not be suitable for all beading projects. We recommend using a beading tray and fine beading needle for best results.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 16/0. 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.
