Preciosa Ornela 8/0 seed beads in opaque matte black — cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, and sold by the hank — give you a consistently sized 2.8–3.2 mm bead with a flat, light-absorbing surface that reads as genuinely dark rather than reflective.

The special opaque matte finish blocks light entirely, producing a dense, chalky black with no shine — a surface that holds its own against metallics or stands alone without competing for attention.

What to make with them

Their 8/0 size threads up well for loom work, peyote, and brick stitch where you want a bold, graphic ground color or a strong outline between contrast colors. They're also a reliable choice for fringe, tassel drops, and bead embroidery on dark fabric where a matte surface reads crisply without glare.

Description

Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 08/0. Each bead measures approximately 2.9 mm across with a 0.90 mm (approx.) 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.
