Miyuki Delica 11/0 DB073 is a color-lined purple seed bead — precision tube-cut in Japan for the tight size consistency and flat sides that make Delicas the go-to cylinder bead for loom and off-loom weaving. This 9g package gives you a solid working quantity of a deep, richly toned purple that earns its bestseller status.

The color-lined finish places the purple hue inside a transparent glass shell, so light passes through the outer layer before hitting that inner core — the result is a depth and glow you don't get from a standard opaque or surface-dyed bead.

What to make with them

The uniform cylindrical shape locks together snugly in peyote stitch, brick stitch, and loom work, making it ideal for geometric patterns, tapestry-style cuffs, or detailed figurative pieces where color placement needs to be exact. It also threads beautifully into fringe drops and needle-woven earrings where that inner purple glow can catch the light with movement.
