DBL-0325 Delica Metallic Blue Iris Matte 8/0

Miyuki's 8/0 Delica in Metallic Blue Iris Matte delivers the precision tube-cut consistency Delicas are known for, now in a larger 2.8–3.2 mm size that works up quickly and holds its shape beautifully in structured designs. The matte surface paired with a strong iris finish gives you that moody, dimensional color shift without any glassy glare.

The matte ground lets the multicolor iris do all the talking — deep blue shifts and rolls through violet and teal depending on the light, giving each bead a quietly dramatic, almost holographic quality.

What to make with them

The larger 8/0 Delica size is a natural fit for loom and right-angle weave projects where you want faster coverage and bolder graphic impact, and the iris finish makes it especially effective in mosaic-style peyote pieces where the color shift reads differently across angled surfaces. It's also a strong candidate for fringe, kumihimo braiding, and bead embroidery where the matte-iris contrast adds texture without competing with surrounding materials.
