These Preciosa Ornela Czech glass Claw Sfinx beads come in a 3x8mm claw shape — 120 pieces in opaque grey-black tones with a finish that earns its dramatic reputation. The elongated claw profile gives you real architectural presence in a single bead.

The Sfinx finish deepens the opaque color with a subtle mirrored quality, so the surface reads less like flat glass and more like something pulled from a much darker, more interesting place.

What to make with them

The claw shape is a natural for statement earrings and pendulum-style drops where the tapered form can hang freely and catch light. They also work beautifully strung in repeating sequences on necklaces or woven into bead embroidery as focal accents — just handle them gently, as the Sfinx surface is delicate and doesn't tolerate friction or chemicals.

The finish on these beads is delicate. Avoid prolonged exposure to friction, moisture, skin acids, and harsh chemicals to preserve the surface coating.
