Jewelry-making ideas
Use these small faceted beads in beadwoven bracelets, delicate necklaces and earrings, or as spacers beside larger beads. Their green-turquoise base and reflective finish pair with clear glass, contrasting colors and metal findings for modern and vintage-inspired projects.
What does AB mean?
AB describes the Aurora Borealis surface coating, which adds rainbow reflections to the opaque glass. Green Turquoise is the glass color name, not the bead's mineral composition.
Czech glassmaking heritage
Made in Northern Bohemia in the Czech Republic, these beads continue a glassmaking tradition dating back to the 14th century. Glass is pressed in a mold, precisely faceted by machine and polished in direct fire. This produces brilliant, slightly rounded facets with a softer appearance than sharply cut crystal components, offering a cost-effective, scratch-resistant glass bead for jewelry making.
Small-batch production can cause slight differences in size and shape. Glass shades vary between production lots, and larger beads may appear darker because they contain more glass.
