Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in Terra Metallic Purple come in a 6-hank quantity, giving you serious working volume of these Bohemian cut-glass-tube rocailles. The Terra coating layers a metallic purple over that earthy, ceramic-like surface — a combination that reads as both ancient and intentional.
The durable Terra coating delivers a matte-meets-metallic finish with an artisan ceramic quality — rich purple depth without the high gloss, so the color feels grounded rather than flashy.

What to make with them
Their 2.0–2.2 mm cut-tube construction catches light at irregular angles, making them well-suited for dense peyote or brick stitch work where surface texture adds dimension. The 6-hank volume also supports larger loomwork panels, fringe-heavy statement pieces, or embroidery projects where you need consistent color across a lot of real estate — just keep in mind the durability rating of 4 means these are better suited to display or occasional-wear pieces than daily-use items.
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.
