Czech and Japanese Bugle Beads

High quality Japanese and Czech glass bugle beads… Straight and twisted!

So many sizes, so many colors!

Bugle Beads are thin, smooth tubular glass beads used for jewelry, beaded fringe, embroidery, costumes design, so much more. Bugle beads can be strung, sewn on or glued to many different materials. Due to the nature of this product and how the glass is cut, each Bugle Bead will differ slightly in length and/or width; they are not uniform. I personally used to have a metal file or an emery board on my beading work table to file the ends of the bugles so as to not cut my thread with the sharp edges.
