Farfalle — Italian for 'butterfly' — are a bow-tie-shaped seed bead, and these 3x7mm Preciosa Ornela examples in transparent medium green AB come in a generous 26-strand pack that's built for projects with real scope.
The transparent green base lets light pass through while the AB finish throws a dramatic, shifting rainbow reflection across the surface — moody and alive at the same time.

What to make with them
The pinched waist and flared wings of farfalle make them especially effective as accent beads in woven pieces like peyote or right-angle weave, where their silhouette adds texture without adding bulk; they're also a natural fit for fringe work and netted bead embroidery where their shape catches light from multiple angles.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 03x07mm. 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.
