Beadmakers' gathering in Ribe VikingeCenter

Watch up close as skilled bead makers transform glowing glass into beautiful, colourful beads.

This weekend glass bead makers from Denmark and abroad gather at Ribe VikingeCenter to demonstrate their craft. Watch their impressive skills and follow the process as red hot glass is shaped into small, delicate beads.

The techniques they use are the same as those used by the Vikings more than a thousand years ago.
