Preciosa Ornela's 33/0 Czech glass seed beads arrive in a 100-gram opaque mix — a generous bulk quantity of one of the largest rocaille sizes made. These are Czech "rarity" or potato beads: chunky, roughly 8mm each, cut from glass tube in Bohemia with the slightly organic shape that earned them the nickname.
The opaque finish across this multi-color mix delivers solid, light-blocking color with no translucency — what you see is a confident, readable pop of color in every bead.

What to make with them
At this size, a single bead reads from across the room. String them on cord or leather for chunky necklaces and festival jewelry, knot them into macramé, or use them as bold spacers between focal beads — the generous holes take thicker stringing materials that standard seed beads never could.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 33/0. Each bead measures approximately 8.0 mm across with a 2.50 mm hole. These round seed beads are made using Preciosa's tube-cutting and hot-polishing process, which gives them a gently rounded shape and consistent hole size that works beautifully for loom work, off-loom bead weaving, bead embroidery, and general stringing projects. Use them anywhere you need classic Czech rocailles—from intricate peyote and brick stitch to fringe, edging, and multi-strand designs. Not a toy. Not intended for children under 15 years. Seed beads should be kept away from small children due to the risk of swallowing or inhalation.
