Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in Light Turquoise — cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia, with that signature single-facet cut that catches light in a way a standard round seed bead simply can't. One hank gives you serious working quantity of a size that excels in fine, detailed work.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, flat-to-the-eye turquoise with no translucency — the color reads clearly and holds its own against other elements rather than blending into the background.

What to make with them
The 13/0 Charlotte's tiny scale and faceted cut make it a natural for intricate loomwork, needle-woven pieces like peyote or brick stitch where surface texture matters, and as a fine accent bead threaded between larger focal elements in Southwest- or coastal-inspired designs.
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.
