Czech Faceted Firepolish Beads

Firepolish glass beads – made in the centuries-old Bohemian center of bead production – emulate crystal at a more affordable price. These shimmering faceted beads work perfectly for making delicate antique-style jewelry, and for repairing or updating genuine antique jewelry. They are created by pressing glass in a mold to form the bead, then roughly faceting the bead. Finally, the bead’s surface is slightly melted to "fire polish" it and give it increased luster. This process slightly rounds off the facets.You're in the right place for secure online ordering of these great components, whether you're looking for single-colored beads (including aurora borealis and luster coatings), two-tone (multicolored) beads or metal-lined beads!
