Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte True Cut seed beads in dark brown come in an 18-hank bulk quantity, giving serious beaders a working supply of one of the most light-catching small-scale beads made in Bohemia. The single-facet cut on each tiny bead creates a subtle sparkle that a standard round rocaille simply can't match.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, grounded dark brown with no translucency — rich and earthy, with just enough facet glint to keep it from reading flat.

What to make with them
Their 13/0 size and characteristic single cut make Charlottes ideal for fine needle weaving, peyote, and brickwork where you want texture and low-key shimmer without overwhelming a design — think detailed geometric panels, fringe tips, or as accent rows that add depth alongside larger seed beads. They're also a go-to for embroidery-style bead work on leather or fabric where a tight, even surface coverage matters.
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.
