Czech Seed Bead 13/0 Cut Opaque Medium Green Hank
Bring a lush, verdant energy to your most detailed masterpieces with our Czech Seed Bead 13/0 Cut Opaque Medium Green Hank. These premium "Charlotte Cuts" pair a vibrant, forest-inspired hue with a specialized faceted finish, making them a top-tier choice for botanical-themed jewelry and traditional indigenous beadwork.
Product Overview
The Opaque Medium Green finish offers a solid, saturated color reminiscent of mid-summer foliage. Because these are authentic Czech "cut" beads, each one features a single flat facet. This traditional technique creates a rhythmic "glint" of light across the surface of your work, providing a sophisticated texture and depth that standard round beads cannot achieve.
Key Features
-
Genuine Charlotte Cut: Every bead is meticulously crafted with a single flat facet, a signature Czech hallmark designed to add a luxury shimmer to opaque glass.
-
Petite 13/0 Sizing: Measuring approximately 1.7 mm, these micro-beads provide the ultimate precision required for high-definition patterns and delicate needlework.
-
Rich Opaque Hue: The medium green color is solid and consistent, ensuring your designs remain bold and vibrant without any transparency.
-
Convenient Strung Hank: Pre-strung on strands for effortless use, allowing you to transfer these tiny beads to your thread with speed and ease.

The Czech Advantage
Czech 13/0 cuts are the gold standard for fine-art embroidery and heirloom restoration. The unique flat facet allows the beads to sit closer to the foundation material, resulting in a smooth, professional surface that drapes naturally. At 13 grams per hank, you receive thousands of beads, offering ample material for complex projects that require a high level of detail and uniformity.
