Preciosa Ornela Twin 2-H Seed Bead Brass Lined Crystal 2.5x5

Preciosa Ornela Twin 2-hole seed beads in 2.5x5mm cut glass, lined with brass for a warm metallic core that glows through transparent crystal glass. Two holes mean more structural options and a flatter, more uniform drape in woven and stitched work.

The brass-lined finish sits inside the bead itself, casting a warm golden light through the clear glass — the effect shifts subtly with the angle, giving finished pieces an inner warmth rather than a surface shine.

What to make with them

These are well-suited to two-hole techniques like Honeycomb, SuperDuo-style peyote, and Ginko weaves where the parallel holes let you lock beads into tight, geometric formations. The brass-lined crystal also works beautifully in bridal or Art Deco-inspired pieces — think chandelier earrings or collar necklaces where that warm inner glow reads as vintage glamour under light.
