DB249. Lined Crystal Purple Luster. Miyuki Delica Seed Beads.
Size 11/0.
Miyuki Delica beads are considered to be of the highest quality, they have a uniform shape and size, which makes them ideal for precision work.
We like to use them for our goldwork embroidery as they add a bit of razzmatazz to our work.
Our 5 gram packs contain approximately 1000 beads.
We also have available larger bags of 50g or 100g.
Miyuki Delica beads are commonly used by beaders and are ideal for brick stitch, peyote stitch or using in a loom.
They are so uniform in shape that they can create a fantastic smooth fabric and patterns line up perfectly, giving a clean crisp finish. We have seen evidence of this one year at Alexandra Palace when there were some robes that were purely made from beads.
Our Miyuki Delica Beads are size 11 seed beads, which have a cylinder shape rather than a round bead shape. This makes sewn beadwork much flatter and more consistent than a normal size 11.
The most colorful and versatile of beads, waiting to be transformed into elegant seed beaded creations. Delica seed beads are the world standard for high quality.
Delica beads have a perfect tubular shape and a very large hole for their small size, this makes them ideal for consistent bead weaving texture and a number of threads can be passed through their hole at any one time.
You can make just about anything with Delica beads and they can be used in knitting and cochet as well.
Delica beads were originally created for loom weaving, so look great in woven works. Seed Bead is a generic term for any small bead.
Delicas are manufactured by Miyuki of Japan.
The 11/0 size is the most popular bead size, recommended in bead magazines and beading books everywhere. Once you have tried working in these beads you wont look back.......
