Glass beaded handicrafts

Bead work handmade around Lake Atitlán

Our bead work is glass beaded by hand by Maya artisans in the towns around Lake Atitlán, in the highlands of Guatemala. With thousands of tiny, colorful glass beads they create earrings, necklaces, bracelets, keychains, barrettes, dream catchers and Christmas ornaments — one bead at a time. Every piece is a handcrafted Guatemalan handicraft with small variations in color and detail. TOPACA designs and produces these beaded designs together with artisan families, and supplies them wholesale to gift shops, museum stores, boutiques and online sellers, shipping and exporting worldwide.
