Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in opaque light lavender, sold in an 18-hank quantity — the single-cut facet on each tiny bead catches light in a way a standard rocaille simply doesn't, adding subtle sparkle without any metallic or AB finish.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent lavender tone that reads clearly in finished work, making it well-suited to graphic patterns and color-block designs where you want the hue to hold its own.

What to make with them
At 1.6–1.8 mm, these Charlottes are a natural choice for fine loomwork, intricate peyote or brick stitch pieces where the single-cut facets create a gentle shimmer across the surface, and delicate fringe or embroidery work where a consistent, matte-adjacent lavender grounds more elaborate bead combinations.
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.
