Japanese Miyuki® 15/o Delica Beads are cylindrical in shape and have very thin walls and large holes for their size. Because of their uniformity, they are perfect for loomwork, peyote stitch and brick stitch; giving the appearance of little tiles when finished.  Loose beads are packaged by weight in grams ("gm"). There are approximately 350 beads in 1 gram.

**TRANSPARENT: Means that you can see completely through the bead. Transparent actually transmits - or gives off light - making them a little more sparkly than opaque or translucent beads. Transparent beads recede visually in the background against other colors.**

**LUSTER: (also called “Pearl” or “Ceylon”) refers to a pearl-like finish derived from its namesake. Ceylon more specifically refers to a luster finish on a translucent bead.**
