The opaque metallic finish lays down a solid, high-shine gold surface — warm and rich without any translucency softening the impact.

What to make with them
Their 8/0 size makes them a natural fit for loom weaving, peyote cuffs, and right-angle weave panels where you want a bold metallic presence without the bulk of a larger bead. They're also well-suited for fringe work, kumihimo braiding, and embroidery on leather or fabric where that solid gold sheen can carry a design on its own.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 08/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.9 mm across with a 0.90 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.
