11/0 Charlottes Opaque Dark Navy

The Opaque Dark Navy beads approximate the color of dark, ripe blueberries; use these beads in a floral pattern to perfectly recreate those enjoyable fruits. Dark Navy works well for shading with the navy, dark, and medium blues. It can appear black in low-lighting, so keep that in mind when designing your project.

Opaque glass does not allow any light to pass through the bead. This gives these beads a solid look while still shiny. Many of our customers refer to this as the "regular" or "plain" beads as they are some of the most commonly found beads in both historical and contemporary indigenous bead art.

Charlotte Cuts have one or two facets per bead, which gives them a subtle sparkle. They are particularly popular for old style beadwork. They are fairly uniform in shape and size. They can be used in virtually any beaded project, including applique or flat stitch, lane stitch, peyote stitch, loomwork, bead weaving, bead stringing and jewelry making.
