Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in 24 Karat Gold Plate come one hank (6 strands, approximately 6–7 grams) of cut Czech glass that earns its place in serious beadwork — the single-cut facet on each tiny bead catches light in a way a standard rocaille simply can't.
The 24k gold-colored plating delivers a rich, warm gleam with real depth — classic luxe without looking brassy.

What to make with them
At 1.6–1.8 mm, these 13/0 Charlottes are a go-to for fine bead embroidery where that signature sparkle outlines a cabochon or fills a shaded section, and they thread up beautifully in off-loom stitches like peyote or herringbone when you want a gold surface with more dimension than a plain metallic finish provides.
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.
