14SD497-D: DB2169 Delica Duracoat S/L Lilac 11/0 - 50GM is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Miyuki DB2169 Delica 11/0 in Duracoat Silver Lined Lilac comes in a generous 50g quantity — enough to commit to a full loom piece, a beaded garment panel, or a serious run of peyote without rationing every gram. Precision tube-cut in Japan, Delicas are the go-to cylinder bead when tight, even tension and flat, fabric-like results are the whole point.
The transparent lilac glass sits over a reflective silver core, so the color reads as a cool, luminous purple that catches light from within rather than just off the surface.
Specifications
- Size: 11/0
- Color: Purples (transparent)
- Finish: Silver Lined/Duracoat
- Material: Glass, made in Japan

What to make with them
These are built for structural techniques — peyote, brick stitch, and loom work all benefit from the uniform shape and consistent hole size that lets each bead lock neatly against its neighbor. The silver-lined lilac also works beautifully in needle weaving projects like ndebele herringbone where the angled bead faces show off that inner glow.
