10 grams of the 8/0 Rocailles described and pictured above. 8/0 Round Rocailles are the perfect compliment to Delicas, 11/0 Rocailles, 15/0 Rocailles and other Miyuki beads. I like to incorporate Miyuki beads into my jewelry designs with other components, such as Swarovski crystals, semi-precious stones or fresh water pearls. Size 8/0 Rocailles are similar to the 8/0 DBL Delicas, except Rocailles are rounded. Delicas are cylindrical in shape. Miyuki beads are for serious beaders, since the quality of Miyuki beads outshines all others. Miyuki beads are much more uniform than other seed beads. When you use Miyuki beads your pieces will look so much better. Many jewelry designs, as well as, French-Beaded Flower patterns incorporate Rocailles with Delicas. There are approximately 40 beads per gram, 400 beads per 10 grams. Your purchase will be shipped in a recloseable bag labeled with the Rocaille number. Remember, names differ per vendor - but the numbers are constant. | We use baggies to ship beads to help keep the cost low. You are buying beads, not containers. If you prefer to use tubes, we also have tubes, in various sizes available in the Bead Containers & Mats section of our store. US orders are shipped every weekday (except postal holidays) & international orders are shipped twice a week. | AL | Alabaster (translucent, marble like appearance) | | C | Ceylon (pearl-like finish, similar to Opaque Luster, but more subdued and the colors are often softer) | | CR | Crystal (transparent, the inside of the bead is darker than the outside-similar to Inside Color Lined) | | F | Fancy (transparent, usually with an Aurora Borealis finish and inside Color Lined) | | GA | Galvanized (chemically plated – Color not very durable) | | ICL | Inside Color Lined (transparent bead, inside of the bead is different color than the outside) | | ICL* | Same as above, but the inside Color sparkles | | L | Luster (pearl-like finish) | | M | Metallic (has a Metallic look) | | MA | Matte (frost ed appearance, very popular – opaque unless otherwise indicated, sometimes 2 or 3 tone) | | MR | Metallic Rainbow (multiple Color Metallic, often called “Iris”) | | OP | Opaque (no light passes through the bead) | | OPL | Opaque Luster (opaque with a pearl-like luster finish) | | OPR | Opaque Rainbow (opaque with an Aurora Borealis Rainbow finish – often multiple colors) | | R | Rainbow (Aurora Borealis Rainbow finish – often multiple colors) | | S | Satin (silky appearance – very pretty, but edges then to be sharp) | | S-MA | Semi-Matte (not as shiny as most beads, but not quite a Matte finish either) | | T | Transparent (some light passes through the bead) | | TL | Transparent Luster (light passes through the bead and it has a slight pearlized finish) | | T MA | Transparent Matte (some light passes through the bead, frosted finish) | | TR | Transparent Rainbow (light passes through the bead, with an Aurora Borealis Rainbow finish) | | TSL | Transparent Silver Lined (light passes through the bead, hole of bead is Silver Lined) |
