8SB478R: CZ Seed Bead SIL-Line Cobalt 8/0-1HK is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Preciosa Ornela 8/0 cobalt seed beads in a silver-lined finish come by the hank, cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia — a reliable workhorse size in a color that earns its keep across countless projects.
The transparent cobalt glass sits over a reflective silver core, so the beads throw back light with a cool, electric depth rather than a flat wash of blue.

What to make with them
At 2.8–3.2 mm, these 8/0s are well-suited to bead weaving structures like peyote and brick stitch where a slightly chunkier seed bead adds presence, and they work equally well strung in multi-strand necklaces or used as spacers between focal beads in loom work.

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.
