Preciosa Ornela 13/0 Charlotte cut seed beads in transparent Montana Blue come by the hank, giving you a serious supply of one of the most light-catching cuts in Czech glass. That single facet ground into each tiny bead — the hallmark of a true Charlotte — creates a sparkle that a standard round rocaille simply can't match.

The transparent finish lets light pass straight through the glass, so the Montana Blue reads as a clear, saturated cool blue that shifts and glints as it catches the light.

What to make with them

At 1.6–1.8 mm, these 13/0 Charlottes are well-suited to fine bead embroidery and peyote or brick stitch work where that single-cut facet adds shimmer along a finished edge or fills a detailed motif with depth. They also shine threaded alongside larger Czech glass beads in loom work or netted collars, where the transparent blue carries color without visual weight.
