What is the difference between czech glass beads and regular glass beads?
I am new to the bead scene and I was wondering what the difference is, if any? Any they considered vintage?
Czech glass is made in the Czech Republic (or that area). There's a long tradition of glassmaking in the area, and they have a reputation for making very fine glass and crystal. Czech beads aren't just one style - they may be faceted and polished, pressed, or lampwork. Any glass maker can create beads using the same techniques, but that doesn't make it Czech glass.
