Serendipity Beads has the largest selection of Toho bead colours in New Zealand
TOHO beads are produced starting from scratch. Silica ash, soda ash and charcoal are mixed and melted. The molten glass is then extruded and made into canes. The canes are made in either opaque or transparent glass. From these canes the process of creating different finishes, shapes and sizes is begun. It can take anywhere from 3 weeks to 7 weeks to produce the beads depending on the cut or finish
