These small Miyuki Delica Hex Cut 15/0 beads in Dark Raspberry Metallic add a touch of raspberry-colored sophistication to DIY jewelry creations. Their hexagonal cut captures and reflects light, creating a shimmering, textured effect that’s ideal for weaving delicate, detailed jewelry.
Their 6-sided hexagonal shape gives them a slightly angular surface that catches the light differently than a smooth bead, creating a shimmering, textured effect that is highly prized in Miyuki bead weaving. The Dark Raspberry Metallic shade features deep raspberry tones with warm metallic highlights, somewhere between burgundy and deep pink. These 15/0 Delica cylindrical beads measure approximately 1.10 mm along the hole and 1.3 mm in diameter. Their tiny size allows for up to 5 thread passes, a valuable asset for weaving techniques requiring multiple back-and-forth passes.
