These 6x6mm machine-cut crystal diamond beads from Preciosa Ornela come 72 pieces to a pack, bringing Bohemian precision to warm, earthy colorwork. The Dia Blonde Flare colorway sits in the browns, tans, and golds family with a surface coating that shifts its character depending on the light.

The coated finish layers something extra over the crystal base — expect a sheen or color shift that reads differently in natural versus artificial light, giving the bead a warm, nuanced tone rather than a flat one.

What to make with them

The diamond shape makes these a natural fit for right-angle weave and crystal grid embroidery, where their faceted geometry catches light at every turn. They also work beautifully as drops or focal points in earring designs — just keep them away from high-friction settings, since the surface coating is medium-low on durability.

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