Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte True Cut seed beads in transparent ruby come in an 18-hank quantity — that's serious yardage of one of the most light-catching seed bead cuts available. The single-facet cut on each tiny bead (1.6–1.8 mm) creates a sparkle that a standard round rocaille simply can't match.

The transparent finish lets light pass straight through the ruby glass, so the color glows from within rather than sitting on the surface — rich and luminous rather than flat.

What to make with them

Their size and brilliant cut make these a go-to for fine tambour beading, Victorian-style fringe, and dense peyote or brick stitch work where you want maximum shimmer at a small scale. They're equally at home strung into delicate warp threads on a loom for that vintage 1940s–50s beaded bag aesthetic.

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.
