Description

Miyuki® Delicas are extremely uniform cylinder beads manufactured by Miyuki Shoji in Japan.  Delicas come in a variety of sizes and a wide range of hundreds of colors. They can either be smooth or six sided (hex-cut).

Delica beads have a center hole that is larger, which makes them light with more beads per gram of weight and provides easy passage of the beading thread through multiple times. Delica beads are preferred by artists for loom work or off-loom bead weaving projects that require an even, symmetrical appearance. Delicas have the most extensive color palette of all the Miyuki seed beads.

  • Large Delica Beads – DBL – Size 8/0. Measures 2.5 x 2.5mm, hole size of 1.5mm.  Approximately 30 beads/gram = 300 beads/bag. Packaged in 10 gram bags.
  • Medium Delica Beads – DBM – Size 10/0.  Measures 2.3 x 1.2mm, hole size of 1mm.  Approximately 108 beads/gram = 540 beads/bag. Packaged in 5 gram bags.
  • Delica Bead – DB- Size 11/0.  Measures 1.6 x 1.5mm, hole size of .8mm.  Approximately 200 beads/gram = 1000 beads/bag.  Packaged in 5 gram bags.
  • Small Delica Beads – DBS – Size 15/0.  Measures 1.3 x 1mm, hole size of .7mm.  Approximately 350 beads/gram = 1750 beads/bag.  Packaged in 5 gram bags.

The smallest delicas – DBS size 15/0 are preferred for delicate weaving projects as well as designs that combine them with larger beads.  The 11/0 Delica – DB the most popular size are ideal for peyote stitch, brick stitch, square and herringbone stitch or strung as-is for a more delicate look.  The middle size 10/0 Delica – DBM are slightly larger than the DB but have the same even and symmetrical appearance.  The largest size 8/0 Delica – DBL like the other sizes are ideal for beadweaving, but also can be threaded onto thin leather or cording because of their generous hole size.
