Buying Czech Pearls - Prague
We will be going to Prague in a few weeks and I have read that you can buy beautiful beads that look like pearls. There. Supposedly Jackie Kennedy had lovely pearls that were really Czech beads. Does anyone know anything about this and if so, where can one purchase them and what cost if fair. Thanks

Prague is known for Garnets and Bohemia Crystal....not sure about pearl-looking beads?

Agree - have never heard of or seen these beads - only lots and lots of garnets.

Prague has several bead shops that sell what you are looking for. Try www.starbeads.cz for a start.
