Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in opaque dark purple, sold by the hank — the single-cut facet on each tiny bead catches light in a way a standard round rocaille simply can't.

The opaque finish delivers a solid, non-translucent dark purple that reads as bold and graphic, with no light bleeding through to muddy the color.

What to make with them

Their size and faceted cut make these Charlottes ideal for fine bead embroidery, needle weaving like peyote or brick stitch where the cut catches directional light across a surface, and as accent rows in loomwork where you want a rich, defined line of color.
