Miyuki Delica 11/0 – seed beads for even patterns and jewelry design

Miyuki is a well-known brand in seed beads and is appreciated for its consistent quality. The Delica series, in particular, is characterized by its straight, tube-shaped form, which distinguishes them from more rounded rocailles. When the beads lie close together, a smooth and flat surface is created, which is well-suited for works where you want to achieve clear lines, patterns, and color variations.

Size 11/0 is considered small in the original description. The beads measure 1.6 mm in length and 1.3 mm in height, with a hole size of approximately 0.8 mm. Their consistent size makes them practical in techniques where precision plays a major role, especially if you are working with repeated patterns or want the rows to lay neatly and tightly.

The color Opaque glazed frosted grey provides a muted gray expression. The color type Opaque glazed is described as opaque colors that have been made slightly matte but still retain a subtle sheen. This gives a balanced surface that feels soft in expression yet lively, working well both on its own and combined with other beads and jewelry components.
