8SB696-AR: CZ Seed Bead Silk Dark Pink/Violet 8/0 1HK is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Preciosa Ornela 8/0 seed beads in Silk Dark Pink/Violet, cut from glass tube in Bohemia and sold by the hank — a size that's large enough to work up quickly and small enough for detailed patterning.
The silk finish gives each bead a soft, fabric-like sheen rather than a hard shine, letting the dark pink-to-violet color read as rich and muted at once.
Specifications
- Size: 08/0
- Color: Silk Dark Pink/Violet (opaque)
- Finish: Silk

What to make with them
The 8/0 size is a natural fit for loom-woven cuffs and bags where you want coverage without bulk, and the opaque silk finish layers beautifully in peyote or brick stitch pieces where depth of color matters more than sparkle.
