What to make with them
At 2.8–3.2 mm, these 8/0s are a go-to for bead weaving structures like peyote and brick stitch where you want a slightly chunkier scale, and they thread up beautifully on loom work or strung designs where that warm gold tone can anchor earthier palette combinations.
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.
