Czech Seed Bead 13/0 Cut Opaque Lemon Yellow Hank
Add a burst of sunshine to your most detailed designs with our Czech Seed Bead 13/0 Cut Opaque Lemon Yellow Hank. These exquisite "Charlotte Cuts" combine a bright, cheerful citrus hue with a precision-cut facet, making them a premier choice for high-end artisan jewelry and vibrant bead embroidery.
Product Overview
The Opaque Lemon Yellow finish provides a solid, crisp color that is completely non-transparent, ensuring your patterns remain sharp and high-contrast. The "Cut" refers to the iconic single flat facet polished into each bead, which catches the light as you move. In the delicate 13/0 size, this creates a sophisticated, "twinkling" effect that adds a luxury finish to any project.

The Precision of Czech Cuts
Czech 13/0 cuts are the gold standard for Native American contoured beadwork and Fine Art Embroidery. The single flat facet allows the beads to sit closer to the surface of leather or fabric, resulting in a cleaner, more refined finish compared to standard round beads. At 13 grams per hank, you receive thousands of beads, providing the volume needed for intricate medallions and complex floral patterns.
Creative Applications
-
Floral Beadwork: The perfect shade for bright petals, sunflower centers, and spring-themed botanical designs.
-
Traditional Regalia: A popular choice for adding high-visibility highlights to traditional geometric patterns and medallions.
-
Statement Fringe: The faceted surface catches the light beautifully in moving designs, making it ideal for swaying, summer-inspired earrings.
-
High-Contrast Designs: Pair with Opaque Black or Opaque Royal Blue for a striking, modern visual impact.
Pro Tip: Due to the micro 13/0 size, we recommend using a high-quality, thin thread such as Nymo Size OO or FireLine 4lb to ensure a smooth crafting experience when making multiple passes.
