11/0 Delica (Cylinder) Beads

From our perspective as bead weavers, the Delica bead is the premier bead, especially for beading projects using the peyote stitch. The Delica bead is the cylinder bead made by the Miyuki Company in Japan. This bead is so popular in the bead weaving world that many patterns actually specify colors by their Delica or DB number.

What makes this bead so special is it's precision cut - it is rare to find a delica bead that is irregular. Using these beads in the peyote stitch, your project will feel supple - like material. In the photo of the earring made with delica beads you can see how precise each one is.

We carry many colors and finishes of delica beads in size 11/0 - you are sure to find some you like for your bead weaving projects. Although we sell the delica beads in 8 gram tubes, if you need a large quantity you can special order them in 100 gram bags for a discount.
