About

Here are the glass Brazil nuts I was telling you about.
I find Czech beads, with their consistent quality and range of colors, a joy to use in jewelry design. You will too!
Take advantage of Quantity Discount Coupon Codes at Bowerbirds whenever you can.

All bowerbirds spend their lives either making or choosing beauty, so I named my business after them.

Czech beads: Beads that glow under UV light. The inner light in opaline glass. Picasso finish. Sumptuous true color glass beads. Floral and geometric beads.

This shop, Bowerbirdsjewelry, is where I sell the beads that I have grown to love the most, Czech pressed glass beads. Back in 1990, after the 'velvet revolution' in Czech Republic when vintage glass beads started appearing in US gem shows, I bought what I could and made jewelry. Some of the beads back then were weird: consider a capri blue glass Brazil nut, clearly made from a cast of a real Brazil nut probably late at night in the factory and under the influence of excellent beer.

Eventually the original 1930s beads disappeared from view; I never saw them at shows. When the Czech beadmaking industry came out with new beads, I was thrilled, and I feel the same way now. Welcome to my shop!

Payment
We accept all credit cards, Paypal, US money orders, and Etsy gift cards.
We ship your orders 1-3 days after you place your orders.

If for some reason we need more time (if we are on the road, etc.) to fill and ship your orders, we'll mention it up front in our store announcement paragraph.

If you pay by US money order, expect a delay on the shipment of your order until I have received and processed your money order payment.

If there's any problem, please convo (contact) me and let me resolve it before posting a bad review. If you like us, please give us a good review.
Shipping
We ship your orders 1-3 days after you place your orders. For domestic and international orders, we ship USPS first class package or priority flat rate mail.

If you have a larger order that cannot be well packed in a padded envelope, we will ship it in a small priority mail flat rate box.
Refunds and Exchanges
I refund the cost of any product if it isn't satisfactory, either by exchange or money.

Convo (contact) me with any concerns within 7 days of receiving your order if you are dissatisfied for any reason. I allow returns, if notified as above, up to two weeks after shipping domestic orders, and for up to 5 weeks after shipping international orders. Mail returns to: Bowerbirds, P O Box 271688, Houston, TX 77277.

All items purchased from me and sent back for a refund to you must be accounted for and should be in the original condition as received.

I do not normally refund shipping costs, because by the time I am asked for a refund, that money has gone to the shipper (USPS) and not to me. I refund shipping costs only when necessary to make right an obvious error I have made, such as having sent the wrong item to you. If the laws of your country demand more, I will comply, but reserve the right to monitor transactions with and cease to do business with your country. Thank you for understanding.
