Preciosa Ornela pressed glass Pip beads in California Green bring a 5x7mm curved, lens-shaped form to your work — 50 pieces of Bohemian Czech glass with a surface coating that shifts the color's depth and sheen.

The coated finish layers an extra treatment over the California Green glass, adding visual complexity that can read earthy and moody or fresh and garden-bright depending on your light source — though keep in mind that coated surfaces carry medium-low durability and can wear with friction over time.

What to make with them

Pip beads are a natural fit for two-hole bead weaving patterns like Peyote or right-angle weave, where their curved profile creates dimensional, petal-like surfaces; they also work beautifully strung as earring drops or woven into botanical-inspired collar necklaces where the organic shape does the visual heavy lifting.

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