These 4mm Preciosa Ornela fire polished glass beads in transparent dark amethyst come 100 pieces to a pack, giving you a solid working quantity of a deeply versatile jewel-toned round. Fire polishing gives each faceted surface a smooth, flame-finished edge that catches light cleanly and strings without snagging thread.

Transparent dark amethyst means the glass itself carries a rich, saturated purple — no coating, no surface treatment — so light passes straight through and glows from within, deepening or brightening depending on what's behind it.

What to make with them

At 4mm these are a natural fit for strung necklaces and bracelets where you want consistent color rhythm, and they work equally well as spacers between larger focal beads in bead weaving patterns like right-angle weave or peyote. Their faceted surface also makes them a go-to for earring drops and fringe work where movement and light interaction matter.
