Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte True Cut seed beads in opaque gray deliver the single-facet sparkle this style of bead is known for — and at size 13/0, that tiny cut catches light with surprising punch. You're getting a full hank of Czech glass made from cut glass tube in Bohemia, Czechia.
The opaque gray finish reads as a solid, non-translucent color — cool-toned and graphic, with no depth or glow behind it, just clean, confident gray that holds its own against any palette.

What to make with them
The single-cut facet on a Charlotte makes it a go-to for fine beadweaving techniques like peyote or brick stitch where you want subtle texture and light-play without bulk — this gray reads beautifully in geometric patterns, regalia work, and monochromatic loom pieces where contrast comes from finish rather than color.
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.
