Czech glass heritage
Northern Bohemia, part of the Czech Republic, has a glass beadmaking tradition dating back to the 14th century. Czech glass is pressed in a mold, precisely faceted by machine and polished in direct fire. The result is a brilliant, scratch-resistant bead with softer, slightly rounded facets that tone down the hard lines of machine-cut crystals. These cost-effective beads are usually produced in smaller batches, so sizing and shape may vary slightly.
Glass shades can vary between raw-material lots, and larger sizes may appear darker because of the volume of glass. Photos are for reference; monitor settings and browsers affect displayed colors, and slight shade differences are unavoidable. Size-comparison guides show sample colors, not this product color.
Your satisfaction is guaranteed.
