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.

**Matte: (also referred to as “frosted” or “satin”) describes a velvety or "frosted" dull finish, rather than a shiny or reflective surface. The effect is achieved by chemical etching or tumbling. Matte beads recede visually next to any shiny bead and display rich, deep colors.**
