These 8mm dark sapphire fire polished rounds from Preciosa Ornela come 150 pieces to a pack — a generous count of a Czech glass classic that earns its bestseller status. The faceted surface catches light the way only fire polished glass can, with crisp, repeatable geometry bead after bead.

Transparent dark sapphire lets light pass straight through the glass, giving each facet a deep, saturated blue that shifts from inky navy in shadow to a cleaner jewel tone in direct light — no surface coating, just the color living inside the glass itself.

What to make with them

At 8mm these rounds are substantial enough to anchor a statement necklace or carry a bracelet design on their own, and their consistent faceting makes them reliable partners for right-angle weave or other stitch work where uniform bead geometry matters. They also work well strung as a single-strand piece where the transparent depth does the talking.
