Preciosa Ornela 8/0 Czech glass seed beads in Opaque Royal Blue come by the hank, giving you a generous working supply of a color that pulls real weight in any palette. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, these rocailles deliver consistent sizing in the 2.8–3.2 mm range — reliable enough to keep your tension even row after row.

The opaque finish means the blue is fully saturated and light-stopping — a rich, graphic royal that reads clearly whether you're working under studio lights or natural sun.

What to make with them

The 8/0 size is a workhorse for loom weaving and two-drop peyote where you want bold color coverage without the fussiness of smaller beads, and the strong opaque tone makes it especially effective for geometric patterns, wide stripes, or any design where contrast does the talking. They're also a natural fit for strung necklaces and bracelets rated for everyday wear, since Preciosa Ornela glass carries a durability rating suited to regular use with normal care.

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.
