This Preciosa Ornela Czech glass Bay Leaf bead in Topaz with Inlay measures 6x12mm and brings a realistic botanical silhouette to your work — a pressed glass leaf shape in a warm, earthy brown-gold tone that reads as genuinely organic.

The transparent topaz glass is finished with an inlay coating that shifts the surface color and sheen, lending depth and a slightly rustic, aged quality to the warm base tone.

What to make with them

String these leaf beads as dangles in boho earrings or use them as connectors in Southwestern-style necklaces where the natural shape does the design work; they're also well-suited to vine-and-leaf beadweaving motifs and nature-themed loom work, just keep in mind the medium-low durability coating means high-friction placements like bracelets are best avoided.

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