Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in opaque turquoise, sold by the hank — the single-cut facet on each tiny bead catches light in a way a standard rocaille simply can't, giving beadwork a subtle, lively sparkle without any glitz.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, saturated turquoise with no translucency, so the color reads boldly and consistently across every stitch.

What to make with them
Their size and faceting make these Charlottes ideal for fine peyote or brick stitch work where you want crisp color saturation with a hint of shimmer, and they're a natural choice for loom-woven pieces, fringe details, or needle-woven jewelry where that classic Czech cut adds texture at a microscopic scale.
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.
