Miyuki's DB2128 Delica in Nile Blue brings a cool, composed blue-green tone to your 11/0 bead work — and at 50 grams, you've got serious yardage to work with. Precision tube-cut in Japan, Delicas are the go-to cylinder bead for tight, even coverage in loom and off-loom weaving.
The Duracoat opaque finish lays down a smooth, consistent color that resists fading and wear better than standard dyed finishes, so that Nile Blue stays true through regular handling and everyday wear.
Delicas' uniform cylindrical shape makes them ideal for peyote and brick stitch projects where even tension and flat drape matter — think cuffs, amulet bags, and geometric panels. The Nile Blue colorway works especially well in coastal-inspired mosaic patterns, color-block loom bands, or as a calm mid-tone anchor in oceanic or retro palette designs.
