Six hundred 3mm opaque black fire polished rounds from Preciosa Ornela — a workhorse bead in a size and color that earns its place in nearly every serious maker's rotation. Bohemian fire polished glass means each facet is crisp and the finish is rated high durability, so the color stays put.

Dead-solid opaque black with no light transmission — the glass fully blocks light, giving you a true, consistent black across every bead in the lot.

What to make with them

At 3mm, these rounds are ideal for detailed bead embroidery, fine peyote or brick stitch work, and as spacers or accent rounds in strung designs where a small hit of solid black adds contrast without bulk. The faceting catches light well in woven pieces, making them a reliable choice for gothic, Victorian, or minimalist jewelry where clean geometry matters.
