Create simple, contemporary jewelry with these 4 mm Preciosa 6/0 seed beads in Permalux Grey Mat, a matte gray that’s easy to pair with other colors.
Their 6/0 size, measuring approximately 4 mm, offers more visual impact than small seed beads while remaining fine enough to create beaded bracelets, necklaces, or accessories. The Permalux Grey Mat shade offers a deep, matte gray—ideal for creating graphic, minimalist, or high-contrast designs. These Preciosa seed beads can be used on their own or combined with metallic beads, gemstones, or brighter colors.
What can you do with these gray seed beads?
Play on their neutrality to create a patterned bracelet where the gray serves as a backdrop for touches of pink, yellow, or blue. A simple bracelet on cable wire makes a great base to pair with a woven cuff in the same tones. For a lighter design, use them in a necklace, alternating them with white or metallic beads—similar to this DIY necklace—by replacing certain shades with this matte gray. They can also serve as spacers to tone down a very colorful palette.
Both beginners and experienced designers can easily make the most of this versatile color. Early projects can focus on simple stringing and regular alternations, while more advanced designs will play with patterns, rhythms, and contrasts in finishes. Our tutorials and technical guides provide tips and tricks for choosing thread, organizing your colors, and achieving clean finishes.
Please note: There may be variations in the size of the seed beads within a single bag.
Sold in 20-gram bags, containing approximately 260 beads
