MIYUKI Round Rocaille seed beads are round in shape, extremely uniform and were created by MIYUKI CO. LTD. These seed beads are preferred by most bead artists and are used for peyote, brick stitch, and loom projects which all need uniformity. This shape gives each finished piece a clean surface along with an amazing amount of detail.
Miyuki 11/0 seed beads are a cornerstone of the beading world, highly valued for their superior quality and consistency. While the term "Miyuki seed beads" often gets used interchangeably with "Miyuki Delica beads," they are actually two distinct types of beads from the same manufacturer. The key difference lies in their shape.
Here is a detailed description of Miyuki 11/0 seed beads, also known as Miyuki Round Rocaille beads, or RR for short, and not to be confused with the cylindrical Miyuki Delicas.
1. Shape and Uniformity
- Rounder Shape: Miyuki 11/0 seed beads have a classic, slightly rounded "rocaille" shape. While they are not perfectly spherical, they are much more rounded than the perfectly cylindrical Delica beads.
- High Uniformity: Like all Miyuki products, these beads are known for their high degree of consistency in size and shape. This makes them a significant improvement over many other brands of seed beads, which can vary widely in a single batch. This uniformity is crucial for creating professional-looking beadwork with a consistent tension and appearance.
2. Size (11/0)
- Standard Sizing: The "11/0" size is the most popular and widely used seed bead size. It is a versatile size that works for a wide range of projects.
- Dimensions: An 11/0 Miyuki seed bead measures approximately 2mm in diameter. It is slightly larger in diameter than an 11/0 Delica bead (which is about 1.6mm), but they are comparable in overall length when strung.
- Beads per Unit: There are approximately 110 beads per gram, or around 1,100 beads in a standard 10-gram bag. This number can vary slightly depending on the specific color and finish.
3. Hole Size
- Functionality: Miyuki 11/0 seed beads have a larger-than-average hole size compared to other seed beads on the market. This feature allows for multiple passes of a beading needle and thread, which is essential for most bead weaving techniques.
- Thread Capacity: The hole size is large enough to accommodate threads like Fireline, Nymo, and other common beading threads, making them very practical for a wide variety of projects.

MIYUKI Finish/Style Definitions:
- AB: Rainbow (AB beads, also known as (Aurora Borealis) are typically beads with a rainbow interior or exterior finish)
- ALAB: Alabaster (Alabaster beads are translucent, with an opal-like exterior finish)
- CEY: Ceylon (Ceylon beads have a luster Pearl or Opal-like finish. Similar to Opaque Luster beads, Ceylon beads are shiny and have a more subdued finish)
- CRY: Crystal (Crystal beads are transparent and similar to Inside Color Lined beads with a clear or dyed exterior. Crystal beads may or may not have an AB exterior finish)
- DURA: Duracoat® (Duracoat® beads have a durable clear exterior coating which is intended for dyed, Silver Lined and Galvanized beads. It’s a thicker/stronger coating than a traditional one, which means the colors will last and retain their brilliance. The Duracoat® coating, unlike TOHO's Perma-Finish coating, will also protect the bead from dulling or flaking)
- FANCY: Fancy Lined (Fancy Lined beads are typically Transparent, and inside the hole or interior of the bead there is a colored or reflective lining. This combination makes the bead look like it has depth and glow, because light passes through the clear glass and reflects off the inner coating)
- GALV: Galvanized (Galvanized beads are created using an unstable surface treatment or chemical wash which gives a metallic coating to a transparent bead surface. Galvanized beads are not recommended unless you can't find another bead of a similar color. Duracoat® Galvanized beads have replaced the typical Galvanized bead, and have a much more stable exterior finish)
- ICL: Inside Color Lined (Color Lined beads are dyed and have a transparent exterior finish with a different color on the interior of the bead)
- IRIS: IRIS (Iris beads (also known as AB or Arora Borealis are typically Metallic beads with an AB finish on the exterior)
- LUS: Luster (Luster beads have a pearl-like finish which may also have an AB finish)
- MET: Metallic (Metallic beads have a Metallic-like exterior finish which may also include an IRIS or AB finish on the exterior of the bead)
- MA/MT: Matte (Matte beads have a frosted exterior appearance which has been applied using acid or other techniques. Matte beads are available in most finishes including Opaque, Metallic, and Transparent, and may or may not have and AB exterior finish, also known as "Matte AB")
- OP: Opaque (Opaque beads are typically solid and do not allow light to pass through them. Opaque beads may or may not be dyed, and have a Matte, Semi-Frosted, Luster or AB exterior finish)
- SS: Silk Satin (Silk Satin beads have a silky interior appearance, however the edges tend to be sharp and require a heavier beading thread (typically size D) to ensure that the beads do not cut the thread)
- SF: Semi-Frosted (Semi-Frosted beads are not to be confused with Matte beads. Semi-Frosted beads are typically Opaque or Silver Lined and have a softer, subtle finish than typical Opaque beads)
- SL: Silver Lined (Also known as (Transparent Silver Lined), are beads that typically have a clear, opal or Alabaster exterior finish and a silver-lined interior. Silver Lined beads may or may not be dyed and have an AB, or Sem-Frosted exterior finish)
- TR/TRANS: Transparent (Transparent beads are typically clear or have a dyed exterior color which allows light to pass through them. They may also have been treated with a Luster exterior coating and may or may not have been treated with a Matte or AB finish as well)
