These 4mm Preciosa Ornela machine-cut crystal diamond-shape beads come 144 pieces to a pack, giving you a solid working quantity of a genuinely versatile form. The diamond silhouette catches light from multiple faceted angles, making a small bead do a lot of visual work.

The Dia Gold Aurum Half Coated finish lays a warm, golden-auric surface over just one half of the crystal, so each bead reads as a rich, glowing gold from some angles and reveals clear crystal depth from others — a dual-toned effect that shifts with movement.

What to make with them

The diamond shape threads up beautifully as a spacer or focal accent in earring drops and pendant chains where the angled facets can swing freely and catch light. They also work well woven into peyote or right-angle weave panels where the pointed geometry creates a clean, repeating Art Deco rhythm — just keep in mind the half-coated surface has medium-low durability, so pair them with techniques that minimize bead-on-bead friction.

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