Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte seed beads in transparent grey are cut from glass tube in Bohemia, giving each tiny bead a single facet that catches light with a sharp, glinting edge. At 1.6–1.8 mm, these are among the finest seed beads you can work with, and that single cut makes a real difference in how finished beadwork shimmers.

The transparent finish lets light pass straight through the grey glass, so the color reads cool and clear rather than flat — that facet throws a little spark every time the angle shifts.

What to make with them

Their small size and faceted cut make 13/0 Charlottes a go-to for fine peyote or brick stitch work where you want subtle texture and light play without bulk, and they're especially well suited as accent rows between larger beads in Victorian-inspired loomwork or as the delicate edging on a beaded collar or cuff.
