Murano glass bead twists also known as leaves. Each bead made by hand. The twist is made by use of a tool which crimps in the design and then the beadmaker gently twists the glass for the swirl. To view the size of each one, please click on the picture below.
Venetian
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
1993, shipping worldwide. We also offer Swarovski® Crystals, Gold Findings,
Sterling Silver Findings, Softflex™ Wire, Beadalon Wire and a variety
of Beading Tools and Supplies. We offer wholesale beads and the largest
Venetian Bead Shop Wholesale showroom in the US with over 3000 sq ft of
