Preciosa Ornela Beech Leaf Dark Emerald Aurora Borealis Finish 7x11mm

These Preciosa Ornela Czech glass beech leaf beads measure 7x11mm and capture the dimensional shape of a real leaf — a natural form that's hard to find rendered this crisply in glass. The Dark Emerald AB finish gives them a depth that flat green simply can't match.

The AB coating layers an iridescent surface sheen over the dark emerald base, shifting the color depending on the light and angle — expect flashes that go beyond straight green into something more complex and alive.

What to make with them

String them along the edges of bead-embroidered cuffs or collars for a trailing botanical border, or cluster them on ear wires for statement drops where the leaf shape does the heavy lifting. They're also well-suited to loom work accents and fringe where the dimensional silhouette can hang freely and catch light.

The finish on these beads is delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to friction, moisture, skin acids, and harsh chemicals to preserve the surface coating.
