Preciosa Ornela Charlotte Cut seed beads in size 13/0 Transparent Amethyst arrive in an 18-hank quantity, giving serious beaders a substantial working supply of one of the most faceted, light-catching cuts in Czech glass. The single-facet Charlotte cut means each tiny bead has one flat face ground into it, producing a sparkle that standard round seed beads simply can't match.

The transparent amethyst finish is clear, see-through purple glass that lets light pass straight through, so the color shifts and deepens depending on your thread color, backing fabric, or the angle of the light hitting those Charlotte facets.

What to make with them

At 1.6–1.8 mm, these 13/0 Charlottes are ideal for fine bead embroidery, tambour beading, and needle-woven lace structures like peyote or brick stitch where the extra sparkle reads as texture rather than glitter. They're also a go-to edging bead for finishing the borders of woven pieces, where that single facet catches light along the fringe line.

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.
