Preciosa Ornela True Cut seed beads in transparent ruby bring a single faceted cut to the classic 11/0 rocaille, catching and scattering light in a way a standard round seed bead simply can't. This hank of Czech glass gives you a rich, glassy red with built-in sparkle at a workhorse size.

The transparent finish means light travels straight through the glass, so the ruby color reads as deep and luminous rather than flat — almost like a tiny garnet in your hand.

What to make with them

The faceted cut makes these a natural for peyote or brick stitch pieces where the angled surfaces create a subtle shimmer across the fabric of the work, and they're equally at home strung as a standalone strand or woven into right-angle weave for a vintage-leaning statement necklace or bracelet.
