Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte True Cut seed beads in opaque medium red, sold in 18 hanks — a bulk quantity of one of Czech glass's most distinctive cuts, where a single facet ground into each tiny bead catches light in a way a standard round rocaille simply can't.

The opaque finish delivers a solid, fully saturated red with no translucency — the color reads strong and graphic whether you're working in bright studio light or dim candlelight.

What to make with them

At 1.6–1.8 mm, these 13/0 Charlottes shine in fine beadweaving like peyote and brick stitch where that single-cut facet adds a subtle shimmer across the surface of a finished piece; they're equally at home in tambour embroidery and couching work, where the cut face picks up directional light as thread pulls them into line.
