These 6mm black fire polished glass beads from Preciosa Ornela come 50 pieces to a pack, cut and tumbled in Bohemia for the kind of faceted sparkle that catches light without asking for attention. Opaque black this consistent is a workhorse — it anchors color palettes, grounds mixed-media designs, and holds its own as the main event.

The finish is fully opaque, solid black glass that absorbs rather than reflects light through the bead — what you see is a clean, deep, uninterrupted black with faceted surfaces that add dimension and catch light at the edges.

What to make with them

Their diamond bicone shape makes them a natural fit for strung necklaces and bracelets where the facets create rhythm, and they work equally well stitched into peyote or right-angle weave as bold accent beads that define structure without competing with surrounding colors.
