Preciosa Ornela's 5x16mm Thorn Beads in White Alabaster Silk Matt are pressed Czech glass with a slender, elongated spike shape that brings strong linear movement to any design. Each package contains 25 pieces.
The White Alabaster Silk Matt finish delivers a soft, muted opacity — neither stark white nor glassy, but a hushed, chalky tone with a gentle satin surface that diffuses light rather than reflecting it.

What to make with them
