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 Color lined

Color lined means that the core of the bead is colored. You can often recognize the color of the bead itself from the name, but in all cases the white core is visible. These kind of beads are less suitable for weaving or peyote, because the outside of the bead is transparent. And when it is next to an opaque color in the bracelet, it seems that one bead is shorter than the other. This makes the bracelt look uneven and not completely aligned. This is less visible with delica beads than with seed beads.
