Preciosa Ornela Seed Bead Charlotte Transparent Sapphire 13/0

$479 $798

SKU: 13SB274-CR

Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in transparent sapphire — a single-cut bead with one facet ground into it, creating a subtle sparkle that standard rocailles simply can't match. At 1.6–1.8 mm and sold by the hank, these Czech glass Charlottes give fine beadwork a jewel-like shimmer without adding bulk.

The transparent finish lets light pass cleanly through the glass, so the sapphire blue reads with depth and clarity — and that one ground facet catches and throws light in a way that makes even a plain strand look intentional.

What to make with them

Charlottes at 13/0 are a go-to for Victorian-style bead embroidery, tambour work, and needle-woven pieces where you want texture and glint within a fine-scale design. They also layer beautifully alongside 11/0 seed beads in peyote or brick stitch borders, adding a tonal sparkle without disrupting the bead count math.

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.
