13/0 Charlottes Transparent AB Grey

These Transparent Grey are a beautiful bead for grayscale pieces, florals beadwork, beaded earrings, and strung jewelry. There can be variation in colors – some batches have a blue-ish hue – so be sure to order enough for whatever project you’re planning.

Transparent glass allows light to pass through the bead, liked stained glass. This makes transparent beads appear extra shiny. The beads are see-through, so the color of the stringing material can affect the appearance – transparent beads strung on black thread will look darker than the same beads on white thread.

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.

Size 13/0 Charlotte Cut Beads measure approximately 1.6-1.8mm. Sold strung on "short" hanks, consisting of 12 12-inch strands. Approximately 3,000 beads per hank. Made in the Czech Republic.

Colors can vary slightly from different lots. If you order multiple hanks of one color, we try to match the lots for you. If you would prefer different lots, please specify that in your order comments. We will do our best to accommodate your request.
