Official Miyuki Seed Bead Size Chart

Miyuki seed beads follow a traditional sizing system used by Japanese bead manufacturers. The size number refers to the approximate number of beads that fit within a traditional measurement unit — meaning larger numbers indicate smaller beads.

Among these sizes, Miyuki Seed Beads 11/0 are the industry standard for bead weaving.
