Size & Specifications
Miyuki Seed Beads 6/0
• Approximate diameter: 4 mm
• Hole size: approx. 1.5 mm
• Shape: Round Rocailles
• Material: Japanese glass
The 6/0 seed bead size is larger than the more commonly used 8/0 and 11/0 beads, making it perfect for jewellery designs that require bold texture and greater visual impact.
