Venetian Beads Cube first made by lampworking the Murano glass into a round bead. Then gently shaping each side into the cube. Some of these are a bit longer in the direction of the hole than an exact cube. These Venetian glass cubes are available in two styles, one with very straight sides produced by using a tool and with the rather soft sides produced strictly by hand, and vary in shape a bit more. They are available in 24kt gold foil, sterling silver, in the white hearts (incalmo) where the center is of a milky white glass and the outside of a transparent Moretti glass, millefiori mosaics, as well as in white gold foil. This is probably the second most common shape after round beads.

Bead Shop is a direct importer of Venetian Beads and Murano Beads. Your
source of wholesale Venetian Beads and wholesale Murano Glass beads. Working
directly with the beadmakers of Venice and the island of Murano, often designing
our own beads, we feature over 8000 different colors and styles of traditional
and modern Venetian glass beads. The beads begin with Effetre Moretti
glass canes which are produced on the island of Murano. Each bead is handmade
one by one by beadmakers sitting behind a torches with a mandrel in one
hand and a cane of glass in the other, known as lampwork. We introduced
Venetian Dichroic Beads to the US through our efforts with our beadmakers
in Murano and revived an ancient technique of furnace glass with our partner
in Murano. We continue to bring new and innovative ideas to this age old
Murano industry. We have been importing Venetian Beads continuously since
