Preciosa Ornela 11/0 opaque dark red seed beads come in a 6-hank quantity, giving you serious working stock of a color that anchors designs with confidence. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, these rocailles carry the consistent sizing and smooth stringing behavior Czech glass is known for.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent dark red — no light passes through, so the color reads as dense and graphic on the needle.
Use them in loom or peyote work where a strong, saturated red needs to hold its own against metallics or neutrals, or work them into strung necklaces and bracelets where the opaque depth gives beaded rope and herringbone patterns a bold, vintage-leaning character.

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.
