These Preciosa Ornela Czech glass bay leaf beads measure 6x12mm and bring a naturalistic silhouette to any design — the leaf shape does the visual work so you don't have to add much else.

The Gold Travertine finish layers a surface coating over the glass to shift the color, sheen, or texture, landing somewhere warm and earthy with a vintage, stone-like quality that reads as neither fully matte nor fully glossy.

What to make with them

Use them as standalone drops in earrings or as trailing elements in fringe necklaces where the leaf shape can move freely; they also work well scattered through bead embroidery as organic accent pieces — just keep in mind the coated finish has medium-low durability, so high-friction applications like bracelets will wear the surface over time.

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