Amethyst Gold Foil Curved Tube 35x8mm, Murano Glass Bead

35mm (about 1 3/8") and 8mm diameter curved bead of translucent crystal glass over the 24kt gold foil gives it a luxurious finish. Handmade in Venice. These curved beads are only possible by the use of the copper mandrels which have a lower melting point and can be heated enough to bend along with the glass. Sizes are approximate as they are handmade. Some tubes may be slightly shorter or longer than the size listed. The color in this one is Amethyst, purple Murano Glass over the 24kt gold foil.
