Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in Metallic Gold are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia — that single facet cut is what separates a Charlotte from a standard round seed bead, catching light at an angle no smooth bead can replicate.
The solid metallic surface delivers a strong, consistent gold shine with real visual weight — this isn't a subtle shimmer but a full-on gleam.

What to make with them
At 1.6–1.8 mm, these 13/0 Charlottes are a go-to for fine peyote and brickwork where the facet adds sparkle without bulk, and they layer beautifully as an accent row between larger beads in loom work or right-angle weave.
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.
