WE HONOR THE MAGICAL STORY OF CZECH SEED BEADS
Few of the things which surround us and accompany us every day have such a rich and fascinating history as glass seed beads. The history of Czech seed beads stretches back to deep into the 16th century, when the first glass furnace was lit in the town of Mšeno in North Bohemia.
However, the production of this unique phenomenon (seed beads) has its roots in Venice, Italy in the year 1500. It gradually moved from there to North Bohemia where it was then perfected and the uniquely wide range and quality of products became internationally renowned.
From the mid-19th century the small village of Zásada became a producer of glassware, such as cutting and polishing of seed beads.
The worldwide known Czech seed beads produced at Preciosa Ornela are sold in more than 80 countries on 5 continents in the world.
They travel to countries where they are not only used to make costume jewelry, but also in the production of ethnic products, traditional souvenirs, embroidery and clothing appliques or decorative products.
Preciosa Ornela produces around 3 thousand tons of them every year.
Czech seed beads proudly bear the PRECIOSA Traditional Czech Beads™ brand,
by means of which we guarantee the best quality
and the widest range of colors, shapes and sizes.
