These 4mm machine-cut crystal diamond-shape beads from Preciosa Ornela come 144 pieces per pack, bringing the precision and clarity of Bohemian glass crystal to your work in a compact, faceted form. The diamond shape gives you a slightly different silhouette than a standard bicone — worth reaching for when you want a little more geometry in your design.

The Crystal Velvet finish is a surface coating that alters the bead's natural transparency, shifting its sheen or texture beyond bare crystal — expect a softened, more tactile look rather than a straight high-gloss sparkle.

What to make with them

Their 4mm size and diamond profile make them well-suited for bead weaving patterns like right-angle weave or peyote where a shaped crystal adds structural interest, and they work equally well strung in graduated necklaces or earring drops where the faceted silhouette catches light at multiple angles. Handle with some care in high-friction applications — the coated finish carries a medium-low durability rating and can wear with repeated abrasion.

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