Size 13/0 Charlotte seed beads from Preciosa Ornela in opaque teal blue — the single-cut facet that defines a true Charlotte gives each tiny bead one flat, light-catching face, and buying 18 hanks means you have serious working quantity for a serious project.
The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent teal blue that reads as a clean, graphic block of color with no variation or transparency — what you see is exactly what you get, stitch after stitch.

What to make with them
The 13/0 Charlotte's fine scale and faceted cut make it ideal for detailed peyote or brick stitch work where that single sparkle adds texture without bulk; it's also a go-to for needle-woven fringe and embroidery on fabric or leather where a flat, matte-adjacent surface color holds its own against surrounding materials.
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.
