Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead Transparent Amethyst Aurora Borealis Finish 8/0

$1200 $2000

SKU: 8SB598-T

Preciosa Ornela 8/0 seed beads in transparent amethyst with an AB finish, sold in a 3-hank bundle — this is the size that hits a sweet spot between coverage and detail, and the bulk quantity means you can commit to a big project without running short.

The transparent amethyst base lets light travel through while the AB coating throws strong multicolor rainbow reflections across the surface, so the color shifts depending on how the light — and your eye — hits it.

What to make with them

Description

Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 08/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.9 mm across with a 0.90 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.
