Alaska Boro is your source for 'Made in Alaska' handmade borosilicate glass beads. Quality beads are individually handcrafted with Northstar Glassworks colored boro rod in combination with Simax clear.

Alaska Boro specializes in handmade glass beads that are available either individually or in bead sets. Each set ranges from 3 to 7 beads of similar size and color. Some sets have a larger focal bead while others are all similar in size.

The advantage of borosilicate glass is as someone stated "is much like a box of chocolates". "You never know what you will get". This make boro a most interesting material to work with. Unpredictable colors with unpredictable results both combine to make amazing glass beads.

I received my beads today and they are beautiful. I looked at them near a sunny window and the subtle colors really popped.

I purchased several of the sunset series beads and they are so beautiful! I purchased them with the hopes that they would match a dress I have, and do they ever!
