Preciosa Ornela 11/0 Czech glass seed beads in transparent deep amethyst AB, sold by the hank — a rich purple base shot through with a strong aurora borealis finish that shifts dramatically in the light.
The transparent deep amethyst glass lets color depth show from within, while the AB coating throws bold multicolor rainbow reflections that read anywhere from violet to teal depending on the angle.

What to make with them
Size 11/0 rocailles are a go-to for peyote and brick stitch work where that iridescent surface will catch light across every angled facet, and they're equally at home strung into fringe or woven into loom pieces where the color shift adds movement without changing a single bead.
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.
