For 2010 Alaska Handmade Jewelry will carry Alaskan made boro (borosilicate) handmade glass beads. Boro beads come in a variety of sizes. Sizes are in the range of 11 to 22 mm in diameter. Hole sizes are either 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) or 3/32 inch (2.4 mm).
Each bead is handmade in our torch room using a propane/oxygen torch. All beads are made with Northstar Glasswork’s colored boro rod in combination with Simax clear boro.
For those in Anchorage, shipping costs are zero if picked up locally. Shipping and handling costs for those outside of Anchorage are at the flat rate of $1.50 per order. This includes one bead, ten beads or more.
