These are Preciosa Ornela 9/0 three-cut seed beads in Montana Blue — a classic deep blue shade sold in a generous 5-hank quantity for makers who work at scale. The faceted cuts on each bead catch and scatter light in a way a standard round seed bead simply can't.

The Sfinx finish lays a high-resistance coating over transparent glass, locking in that rich Montana Blue tone so the color holds up through regular wear and handling without fading or flaking.

What to make with them

Three-cut beads like these shine in loom work and off-loom stitches such as peyote or brick stitch, where their faceted surfaces create a subtle, almost woven shimmer across the finished piece. They're also a go-to for bead embroidery on denim or leather, where the extra faceting adds texture and depth that flat or round beads won't give you.
