Miyuki Delica Seed Beads, Matte Finish | Size 11/0 | 7g Package

Form follows function in precision beadwork, and these opaque matte beads exemplify that principle with a calm, tile-like finish. The product wears that logic visibly: the miyuki delica is offered in a Size 11/0 format that delivers uniformity and predictability for detailed weaving.

Discover why these tiny cylinders are a favorite for projects that demand accuracy and consistency. Each bead is made to tight size tolerances that give finished pieces a neat, mosaic appearance whether you are working flat or on the loom. The matte surface reduces glare and helps color read evenly across a pattern, making shading and stepped color transitions more reliable than with irregular or rounded beads. Because the holes are sized for common beading threads and fine wires, you can pass thread through multiple times for secure joins or stacked embellishments without compromising bead alignment.

• Diameter: 1.6mm; Length: 1.3mm; Width: 1.6mm
• Hole size: 0.8mm; suitable for up to 0.008" (0.20mm) wire and multiple passes with size B or D threads
• Package size: 7g (~1,200 beads); beads per gram ~200; beads per inch when aligned side-by-side ~17–20
• Best for: precision bead weaving — peyote stitch, brick stitch, loom work — where a uniform, tile-like finish is desired
• Recommended thread/wire: Size B or D beading threads (KO, One-G) or FireLine for durability and clean tension control

These beads are sold in a 7g package ideal for small to mid-size projects or for sampling colors before committing to larger quantities. If you plan a large piece that requires consistent dye lots, consider ordering multiple tubes at once to minimize shade variation across batches since color runs can vary slightly between production lots.

Use and care are straightforward: handle gently to avoid scratching matte surfaces during storage, and keep beads in a dry container to prevent any potential humidity-related issues. When beading, a stiff, well-tensioned needle and consistent tension on thread will help preserve the uniform, tile-like finish that makes these beads so useful in geometric and architectural designs. Because the hole is generous for their size, you can usually pass thread through twice in many stitch patterns, which helps with durability in wearable items like bracelets and intricate pendants.

• Sold per 7g package as indicated in the product details above
• No additional processing or personalization options are included with the bead package; color and finish are as listed
• If you require larger quantities for production, please place separate orders for multiple packages to ensure enough beads for your piece
