Czech Pressed Glass Lentil Beads

  Czech Glass Pressed Beads are one of the oldest types of beads. They are the embodiment of boundless human imagination in one of the most beautiful natural materials, traditional Bohemian glass. These were the first beads that were made here over three hundred years ago using the technique of pressing heated glass rods in a mould. These Czech pressed glass beads have a uniform round lentil shape and their large hole size to bead size ratio makes them ideal for consistent bead weaving texture and multiple passes of fine beading thread.
