Preciosa Ornela Bugle Bead Silver Line Garnet Round Hole #3

Preciosa Ornela size #3 bugle beads in silver-lined garnet give you 50g of Czech glass tubes built for bold, linear work. The combination of a rich red hue and a bright silver lining makes these a go-to when you want serious visual punch in a structural bead.

Transparent garnet glass over a silver lining creates strong internal sparkle — the color reads deep and luminous, with light bouncing back from inside each tube.

What to make with them

These 2x7mm bugles are sized for bugle-specific stitches like Comanche or ladder stitch, and they work especially well as spacer elements in loom-woven bands or fringe drops where their linear form adds rhythm and direction. Keep in mind the silver lining is rated medium–low for durability, so they're best suited for pieces with minimal abrasion — finished jewelry rather than heavily handled accessories.

The finish on these beads is delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to friction, moisture, skin acids, and harsh chemicals to preserve the surface coating.
