These Preciosa Ornela pressed Czech glass Pip beads in California Meadows measure 5x7mm and come in a pack of 50 — a distinctive lentil-like shape with a centered hole that opens up dimensional layering in beadwork and wirework alike.

The California Meadows colorway sits in the green family with a surface coating that shifts the color, sheen, or texture beyond the base glass, giving the mix an organic, layered quality that reads differently in various lighting.

What to make with them

The Pip's flat curved form makes it a natural choice for peyote or RAW bezels where you want petals or leaves to fan outward, and it works equally well strung on ear wires for lightweight earrings that catch the light with every turn — just handle them with care, since the coated finish is rated medium-low for surface durability and can wear with friction 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.
