Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in opaque slate blue come wound on a hank, cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia — a reliable, even bead that gives you consistent coverage row after row.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent slate blue that reads as a clean, graphic color with no light bleed — what you see in the hank is exactly what you get in the finished piece.

What to make with them
This cool, neutral slate blue works beautifully in loom-woven bands and peyote cuffs where flat, opaque color creates strong geometric contrast, and it layers naturally into coastal or mermaid-inspired bead embroidery alongside teals, grays, and sandy neutrals.
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.
