The Glass Microbead Campaign is decorated with her designs

She was born in Prague and she has been living with her family in the Central Bohemian town of Nymburk for almost 3 years.

REXPO - a small family company which has been active in the market since 1991. It is involved in the production of glass costume jewellery made exclusively from Czech glass beads and seed beads from the PRECIOSA Traditional Czech Beads™ brand and from other semi-products.

Beadworking is first and foremost a way of relaxing for her and an outlet for her slumbering imagination. There is nothing better after a long day stuck in front of a computer at work than to sit down with these small glass products and to create whatever we want.

She comes from Desná, from an area of glassmaking and textiles and has been involved in handcrafts since her childhood. She graduated in glass technology in Železný Brod and non-woven textiles and nanomaterials at the Technical University in Liberec, so her studies were in technical fields. She began bobbin lace making at the age of 12, initially under the guidance of her mother and then later under the leadership of Jana Kneysová and Věra Holomečková.

Karla Mokrošová first encountered beads when she purchased a book on wired jewelry, which she learnt how to make.
