Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in opaque gray, sold in a 6-hank quantity — this is the workhorse neutral that anchors color palettes and holds its own as a standalone shade. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, these rocailles bring consistent sizing and reliable coverage to any project that demands serious yardage.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent gray — no shimmer, no see-through — just a clean, graphic tone that reads clearly whether you're working under studio lights or natural daylight.

What to make with them
Six hanks gives you enough to commit to large-scale loom work, dense peyote or brick stitch panels, or fringe-heavy pieces where a grounding neutral keeps bolder colors from competing. That cool gray also makes it a natural choice for geometric seed bead embroidery on dark fabric, where opaque coverage matters most.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 11/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.1 mm across with a 0.70 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.
