Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in Pearl Gray AB, sold by the hank, are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia — that heritage manufacturing process gives each tiny rocaille a crisp, consistent shape that machine-made beads rarely match.
The opaque pearl finish lands in a soft, luminous gray that catches light with a gentle glow rather than a sharp flash — understated but unmistakably refined.

What to make with them
Their uniform 2.0–2.2 mm size makes them reliable for tight peyote or brick stitch work where tension consistency matters, and the muted gray pearl reads beautifully as a neutral ground in loom-woven bands or as a blending bead between deeper tones in embroidery.
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.
