CZECH GLASS BEADS

Czech glass beads are famous for their high quality, color stability and resistance to abrasion and chemicals. They are also known for their incredible variation in shape, size, color, structure and surface finish.

Their manufacture has a very long tradition. Czech glass beads have been exported worldwide from the territory of today's Czech Republic for centuries.

In most countries Czech beads have been sold for decades through a network of local distributors and wholesale dealers. Hence their rather high pricing for the retail outlets and the end customers.

However, you can buy genuine Czech glass beads of highest quality directly from the country of their origin at very, very good prices!

We will be proud to become your suppliers. We sell to bead resellers (both wholesalers and retailers), producers of jewelry, Christmas ornaments and chandeliers, as well as to the public.
