I will be spending a week in Prague and a friend has asked me to bring her some glass beads. I have no idea where to look for them. She makes jewelry
and I would like to bring her a few beads. Factories? flea markets?
Thanks!

This will give you an idea of the type they have. There is lots of amber in the CR.

Most crystal stores in Prague have glass beads. They usually have a big bowl somewheres in the store with beads - my mother made me go into every crystal store we saw and most had them.

Hi, Mary,
Oh, there are a lot of people here at Rings & Things who will be jealous of you. We love Czech beads...
Tell you what, here is a link to another online supplier of them (it's our site): https://shop.rings-things.com/cart/pc/showsearchresults.asp?pageStyle=M&resultCnt=10&keyword=czech+beads&submit=Go+%3E%3E
And I'm going to run & ask our purchasers if they know of particular bead shops in Prague.
Take care,
--Dave
