These Miyuki 15/0 Black Sliperit seed beads offer a dark, bewitching metallic finish, ideal for adding depth and sophistication to your bead weaving, embroidery or peyote creations.
The color of these beads is not an original MIYUKI color. It is achieved through a Czech coating
These Japanese beads feature a metallic coating with dark sheen, shifting between deep black and slightly tinted iridescent hues depending on the light. Their smooth, glossy surface gives them a look that is both sophisticated and understated. With a size of 15/0—approximately 1.5 mm in diameter—these are among the smallest seed beads in the Miyuki line, making them particularly well-suited for precision work.
