DB026 Delica Metallic Dark Steel 11/0

$5454 $9090

SKU: 14SD817

DB026 Miyuki Delica 11/0 in Metallic Dark Steel comes in a generous 100g quantity — that's serious working stock of one of the most consistent, uniform seed beads made in Japan. Precision tube-cut construction means every bead sits flush and threads true, which matters when you're counting rows in loom work or peyote.

The metallic finish delivers a solid, high-shine surface in a deep steel tone that reads industrial and cool rather than bright silver — strong visual impact without flash.

What to make with them

Dark Steel is a natural for geometric loom and peyote pieces where the metallic sheen creates clean contrast against matte or earth-tone Delicas. It also works hard in chainmaille-inspired bead weaving, Art Deco edge stitching, and as a grounding neutral in festival or statement jewelry where you want metal presence without using actual metal findings.
