Preciosa Ornela 11/0 seed beads in Light Purple with a pearl finish, sold by the hank — cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, these rocailles bring consistent sizing and reliable coverage to any bead-intensive project.
The opaque pearl finish gives each bead a soft, luminous glow — that quiet, candlelit quality that reads as lavender in some lights and dusty lilac in others.

What to make with them
Their uniform 2.0–2.2 mm size makes them well-suited for peyote and brick stitch work where even tension matters, and the pearl opacity looks beautiful in woven bridal accessories, embroidered textile accents, and loom-work pieces where color consistency across a full hank counts. Preciosa rates this finish 5 (very low resistance) for durability, so it's best for special-occasion pieces and low-friction spots like earrings, embroidery and display work.
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.
