It is time for another Etsy mini trend - I have noticed a growing amount of bijouterie that features flower glass beads, most notably vintage and new Czech flowers. For me personally it is a pleasure to see, as I have since loved the produce of Czech glass beads manufacturers (the history of Czech glass huts is amazing and interesting!). Especially the vintage Czech glass flowers were produced in glass huts of German origin - German bead makers were among the best and most influential in pre-war Bohemia. As always, I used Etsy's poster sketch tool to make a collage of my personal flowerlies favourites (all earrings).
