Add a mysterious, romantic atmosphere to your jewelry with this mix of lilac and black Seed beads, ideal for creating bracelets, necklaces or earrings with striking contrasts.
This blend of colors plays on the contrast between soft mauve, deep purple, and rich black, creating a look that is both dark and refined. These round Preciosa seed beads, size 8/0, measure approximately 3 mm in diameter—a versatile size suitable for both weaving and stringing. The beads have an opaque appearance and a smooth surface, with a through-hole that makes them compatible with most beading threads and needles.
