Add character to your Miyuki pearl jewelry with these Half Tila Beads Black Vitrail Full, featuring intense iridescent reflections on a black background.
The color of these beads is not an original MIYUKI color. It is achieved through a Czech coating
Their black hue is adorned with iridescent shimmers in shifting shades, characteristic of the Vitrail Full finish, which causes colorful sparkles to shimmer depending on the light. These Miyuki Half Tila beads measure 5 x 2.3 x 1.9 mm and are distinguished by their flat rectangular shape, with two parallel holes. This double-hole design is what makes them so versatile for Japanese bead weaving.
What can you do with these Half Tila Black Vitrail Full beads?
Their compact size and double holes make them ideal for weaving cuff bracelets or flat strands. They blend easily into designs featuring Tila beads or Quarter Tila beads, Miyuki’s other flat beads. Pair them with Miyuki seed beads to create a floral woven bracelet, or use them to make a Half Tila-tip necklace with a graphic look. Their iridescent sheen adds a subtle, shifting touch of color without overwhelming the design.

You’ll find tips on managing thread tension, choosing the right weaving thread, and how to alternate bead sizes to achieve a consistent result.
Please note:
Due to their shape, the thinness of the glass, and the double-hole design, Tila beads are more fragile than other Miyuki beads.
To prevent the beads from cracking or chipping, Miyuki recommends handling the packets with the utmost care.
Using a beading mat is strongly recommended when emptying the Tila packets.
Sold in 10-gram bags, containing approximately 250 beads
