Miyuki is the oldest seed bead manufacturer in Japan. Miyuki seed beads are known for their high quality. They are very uniform in size and shape. The holes are larger than many other brands, so more thread passes are possible. The colour of the beads may look different if the beads are arranged in a batch or separately. In addition, colours may vary depending on computer and monitor settings. Bead sizes may vary slightly due to the color or coating used.
