Preciosa Ornela 6/0 seed beads in opaque slate blue come packed as 36 strands of Bohemian-made Czech glass, giving serious makers a generous working supply of a genuinely useful neutral tone. Cut from glass tube in the traditional rocaille style, these E beads run 3.7–4.3 mm and hold up well to regular wear with normal care.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent slate blue — the kind of grounded, graphic color that holds its own without competing with neighboring beads.

What to make with them
Their size and opacity make them strong candidates for bold peyote or brick-stitch work where color blocking does the heavy lifting, and the coastal-leaning hue pairs naturally with pearls, coral tones, or sandy neutrals in strung necklaces and multi-strand bracelets.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 06/0- E Beads. Each bead measures approximately 4.1 mm across with a 1.10 mm 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.
