Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead Charlotte Blue 13/0

$1624 $2707

SKU: 13SB174-CL

Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in opaque blue, sold in a generous 100g quantity — the single-cut facet on each tiny 1.6–1.8 mm bead catches light in a way a standard round rocaille simply can't.

The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent blue with real visual weight, giving designs a crisp, graphic punch rather than a glassy or washed-out look.

What to make with them

Their small size and faceted cut make these Charlottes ideal for fine needle weaving — think peyote or brick stitch pieces where that subtle sparkle adds texture without bulk — and they're a go-to for embroidery edging and fringe work where a clean, saturated color reads well at small 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.
