DBL-0035 Delica Metallic Silver Galvanized 8/0

$627 $965

SKU: 8SD812R

Miyuki's 8/0 Delica beads bring that same precision tube-cut consistency to a larger format — and in Metallic Silver Galvanized, they land with serious visual weight. If you've been working small and want to scale up without sacrificing the tight, uniform geometry Delicas are known for, this is the size to reach for.

The Special Galvanized finish delivers a bright, mirror-like metallic silver surface — high-shine and reflective, with the kind of cool chrome quality that reads as sleek rather than glittery. Worth noting: with a durability rating of 5, this finish is very delicate and holds up best in finished pieces that won't see heavy handling or friction.

Specifications

What to make with them

The larger 2.8–3.2 mm tube format makes these a strong choice for loom work, right-angle weave, or brick stitch projects where you want the metallic surface to register clearly at a glance — think geometric cuffs, structured collars, or statement earrings. They also pair well with mixed-media work where the silver acts as a clean, neutral anchor against darker or more textured materials.

The finish on these beads is delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to friction, moisture, skin acids, and harsh chemicals to preserve the surface coating.
