Preciosa Ornela 5/0 opaque black Czech glass seed beads come in a generous 250g quantity, giving you serious working volume in a size large enough to stitch, string, or weave quickly without sacrificing that clean, graphic punch only a true black delivers.
The opaque finish means solid, non-translucent color all the way through — no light bleed, no murkiness, just a flat, confident black that holds its own in any design.

What to make with them
Their larger 4.3–4.8 mm diameter makes them well-suited for chunky loom-woven bands, macramé accents, and bead crochet ropes where a bold scale reads clearly; they're also a natural anchor bead for mixed-media jewelry that layers contrasting colors or textures against a strong neutral.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 05/0. Each bead measures approximately 4.6 mm across with a 1.20 mm 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.
