$2156 $3594

SKU: 6SB172

Preciosa Ornela 6/0 seed beads in opaque light blue, sourced from Bohemia, Czechia — this 36-strand bulk pack gives you serious working quantity of a reliable, go-to color. Cut from glass tube by one of the craft world's most trusted manufacturers, these E beads run 3.7–4.3 mm and hold their color without any translucency to muddy the effect.

The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent face of light blue — clean and graphic, with no variation in depth or see-through quality to soften the hue.

What to make with them

Their size makes them a natural fit for bead weaving projects where you want visible stitch definition — think peyote or brick stitch cuffs and bags where the color reads boldly across the surface. They're equally well-suited for stringing, knotted necklaces, or fringe work where the chunky 6/0 scale carries the design.

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.
