Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in opaque dark purple, sold by the hank — the single-cut facet on each tiny bead catches light in a way a standard round rocaille simply can't.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent dark purple that reads as bold and graphic, with no light bleeding through to muddy the color.

What to make with them
Their size and faceted cut make these Charlottes ideal for fine bead embroidery, needle weaving like peyote or brick stitch where the cut catches directional light across a surface, and as accent rows in loomwork where you want a rich, defined line of color.
Description
Preciosa Ornela Traditional Czech glass seed beads (rocailles) in size 13/0. Each bead measures approximately 1.7 mm across with a 0.50 mm (approx.) hole. These round seed beads are made using Preciosa's tube-cutting and hot-polishing process, which gives them a gently rounded shape and consistent hole size that works beautifully for loom work, off-loom bead weaving, bead embroidery, and general stringing projects. Use them anywhere you need classic Czech rocailles—from intricate peyote and brick stitch to fringe, edging, and multi-strand designs. Not a toy. Not intended for children under 15 years. Seed beads should be kept away from small children due to the risk of swallowing or inhalation.
