These Preciosa Ornela fire polished glass ovals from Bohemia measure 12x16mm and come in a pack of 12 — a generous size that makes each bead count as a design decision, not just filler.
The gunmetal opaque glass wears a luster overcoat that shifts between a soft pearly sheen and a faint oil-slick iridescence, giving the dark surface unexpected depth.

What to make with them
Their substantial 16mm oval shape makes them naturals as focal points in strung necklaces and statement earrings, and the faceted fire polished surface catches light well enough to hold its own in dark, moody palettes alongside matte seed beads or oxidized metal findings.
