Preciosa Ornela 8/0 seed beads in Crystal Iris AB come three hanks deep, giving you serious yardage of cut Czech glass with a finish that shifts through the full rainbow spectrum. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, these rocailles have the crisp edges that catch light in a way smooth beads simply don't.
The transparent crystal base paired with a strong AB/iris finish produces dramatic multicolor reflections — deep purples and greens one angle, gold and copper the next.

What to make with them
Their 2.8–3.2 mm size and lively surface make them a go-to for woven pieces like peyote or brick stitch cuffs where the iridescence builds into a shifting mosaic, and they're equally at home strung as fringe or incorporated into loom work for festival wear, bridal accessories, or holiday statement pieces.
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.
