Miyuki is the brand name of the best quality seed beads, made in Japan. They come in different sizes and shapes and can be used for weaving, stringing, crocheting, knotting, embroidery, 3D cards and much more.

The big advantage of Miyuki is the very good quality and the fact that all beads have exactly the same shape and size. This always gives a very beautiful result and Miyuki offers a lot of different colors, which give endless combinations to create.

When you see 8/0, then the number 8 means the amount of beads that fit in one inch. This means the lower the number, the larger the bead is.

To make things more clear, we divided the seed beads into the following groups: extra small, small, medium, large and extra large. The 8/0 seed beads are then medium and measure 2,1 mm in length and 3,1 mm in height.

Colortype Duracoat galvanized matte

Duracoat galvanized has an extra protective layer to better protect the originally galvanized color. And with this color type, they are also treated in such a way that the bead does not shine and is less smooth. The matte colors often seem just a bit more full of color than the glossy ones. This added coating will make the beading hole a little smaller, keep this in mind when you choose your needle and thread.
