Pip beads from Czech bead brand Preciosa Ornela have a axially symmetric flattened shape which creates an interlocking zip effect when strung together. Six beads connected in a circle can easily be used to create an application in the shape of a flat flower. This 4 x 6mm bead pressed glass bead works well in combination with other Preciosa Ornela bead shapes including Farfalle and Thorn. As a pressed and tumbled glass bead, Pip beads may vary in size, color and shape slightly.
