How are glass Trollbeads made?

Trollbeads are the original charm bead jewellery. We're probably most famous for our glass lampwork bead collection. All glass Trollbeads are made by turning molten glass in an 800°C flame by highly skilled bead makers from around the world using only the best Italian glass.

This video shows the skilled crafts people at work making one of our unique glass Trollbeads. It is quite a sight to behold.
