Vintage Murano Moretti millefiori glass flower beads. C. 1950s. 12x7mm ovals. 1 mm hole. The beads made in the Murano studios 50+ years ago used glass canes (or murrine) that were much finer than those used today; The Murrines were more complex and richer in color. These beads are becoming increasingly rare. Each bead is unique. Sold individually.
I love creating long necklaces that are not toooo over the top or difficult to wear. This pendant will become the centerpiece of a slim necklace featuring tiny faceted sapphire beads with little sterling spacers. I love it!!
These beads are beautiful, the color is unbelievable and the shine really stands out. I use seed beads a lot and have already used these for various bracelets.
Beautiful, large bead with highly detailed blue fancy carp portrayed around the entire bead. It will be a focal for me, with a few bright blue vintage beads and maybe some pearls if I have some white enough, Truly inspiring!
