About this product
Preciosa Ornela 8/0 seed beads in opaque dark blue come three hanks deep, giving you serious working quantity of a color that earns its place in any rotation. Cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, these rocailles carry the consistent sizing and smooth stringing behavior that Czech glass is known for.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent dark blue — no light passes through, so the color reads as flat and graphic, holding its own against bold palettes without competing for attention.

What to make with them
At 2.8–3.2 mm, 8/0s are a go-to for loom work and off-loom stitches like brick and herringbone where you want visible texture and good bead-to-bead coverage. They're also well-suited for fringe, bead embroidery on fabric, and stringing projects where a chunkier seed bead balances heavier focal elements.
