Open Day 2025

On Saturday, 18 October 2025, we invite you to an Open Day at Preciosa Ornela in Desná, which will take place as part of the Glassmakers’ Days, i.e. a celebration of the glassmaking industry in the Czech Republic, and the Crystal Valley Weekend.

Discover the magic of Czech rocailles at the very place where they are made!

View the seed bead production that has become famous throughout the entire world. You will have a unique opportunity to view the production of famous Czech seed beads, get to know their past and present and see with your own eyes everything that stands behind the creation of each small seed bead from Preciosa Ornela. 

The day will include guided tours, product samples and an opportunity to meet with the experts who will be happy to inform you of the traditions and innovation of Czech glassmaking. You will be able to take a handmade piece of costume jewellery home from the seed bead workshop in the Riedel Villa.

This year, you will also be able to visit the stand where we have prepared a creative, informative project for you called the Secrets of the Rocaille’s Hole under the leadership of the designer Kateřina Krausová.
