Aqua, White Spiral Oval Blown Venetian Glass Bead

Venetian blown glass bead shapes like a oval (hollow inside). Blown in the furnaces of Murano. Distinctive color stripes of translucent glass blown and twisted at the same time to give the spiral bi-color. Size is about 30mm or little less than 1 1/4 " long and 15-17mm diameter with a 2-3mm hole lengthwise, though it varies are they are individually blown by artisans in Murano. No two are ever exactly alike. This one features aqua (aqua) and white filigrana in a spiral.
