Czech Seed Bead Maco Crystal Aurora Borealis Finish 1x4mm

Preciosa Ornela Maco crystal AB seed beads are cut glass tubes — 1x4mm cylinders sliced from Bohemian glass tubing — that catch light from every angle thanks to their faceted cut edges. You get 25 grams of transparent crystal dressed in a strong multicolor AB coating, which means serious rainbow fire in a bead this small.

The AB finish throws dramatic multicolor reflections across the full spectrum, shifting from cool violet and blue to warm gold and pink depending on the light hitting them — prismatic without being subtle.

What to make with them

Their tubular shape makes them ideal for brick stitch and right-angle weave where the extra length creates a distinct linear texture, and they shine as fringe elements or woven accents in loom work where the cut edges stack up to throw continuous rainbow light across a finished piece.
