These 6mm Preciosa Ornela machine-cut crystal diamond-shaped beads come 72 pieces to a pack, each one precision-cut in Bohemia, Czechia for the kind of sharp faceting that catches light from every angle. The diamond silhouette gives you a geometry that bicones and rounds simply can't replicate, making them a strong design choice when you want visual structure.

A surface coating shifts the color, sheen, or texture beyond the base glass, so expect a finish that reads differently depending on your light source — that coated layer is what puts this squarely in the Browns, Tans, and Golds family with some tonal variation across the lot. Keep in mind that medium-low durability rating: this coating can wear with friction, so designs with minimal abrasion will serve these beads best.

What to make with them

The diamond shape is a natural fit for earring drops and pendants where the full geometry stays visible and unobstructed, and it works equally well strung in repeating sequences for necklaces and bracelets where the faceted edges create a rhythmic, angular pattern. Wirewrappers will find the shape particularly useful as a focal or accent within Art Deco- or Southwestern-inspired compositions.

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