Preciosa Ornela True Cut seed beads in transparent ruby bring a single faceted cut to the classic 11/0 rocaille, catching and scattering light in a way a standard round seed bead simply can't. This hank of Czech glass gives you a rich, glassy red with built-in sparkle at a workhorse size.
The transparent finish means light travels straight through the glass, so the ruby color reads as deep and luminous rather than flat — almost like a tiny garnet in your hand.

What to make with them
The faceted cut makes these a natural for peyote or brick stitch pieces where the angled surfaces create a subtle shimmer across the fabric of the work, and they're equally at home strung as a standalone strand or woven into right-angle weave for a vintage-leaning statement necklace or bracelet.
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.
