Preciosa Ornela 4mm fire polished faceted rounds in Blue Iris come 100 pieces to a pack, giving you a reliable quantity of a genuinely versatile workhorse bead. The iridescent iris coating is permanent, so the color shift you see now is the color shift you'll see on the finished piece.

An opaque base catches the facets sharply while the rainbow iris coating rolls through blues, purples, and greens as the bead catches light — the effect reads differently in sunlight than under a lamp, which keeps finished work interesting.

What to make with them

At 4mm these are a natural fit for bead weaving patterns like peyote or right-angle weave where a faceted round adds structured sparkle without overwhelming the design, and they string beautifully as spacers between larger focal beads in necklace or bracelet work.
