NOTE: These beads are no longer in production. As supplies of particular colors run out, that's it. It usually takes many years for supplies to run out, but the more popular colors will disappear. As of 10/15/04, black and red are no longer available.

Tile beads are made from sheets of glass or ceramic.  These sheets are rolled over a round shape, the ends fused together.  Then these rolled sheets are sliced.  There are different types of tile beads made in many countries in the world.  Right now, we have tile beads from the Czech Republic.

Czech glass tile beads are very simple, basic, thin walls of glass with a large opening that easily slips 2mm leather.  The colors are shiny and very consistent within each bead and from bead to bead.   The 5-6mm beads have a large opening that will slip 1mm leather.  

These Tile Beads are no longer produced in the Czech Republic. As our suppliers run out of colors, that will be all that there is. The colors "black, red, and brown" are no longer available. White is near its end. Click the TILE BEADS link to pull up the price/availability sheets.
