Venetian Blown Bead 55mm Flat Disc, Opaque Black

Authentic Blown Venetian Glass Bead. This bead is in opaque black produced in the canna tradition in Murano. Canes are laid down and rolled onto the blow pipe. The bead is then mouthblown and shaped. The size is approximately 55mm top to bottom and 20mm thick with a hole which is nominally 2-3mm running vertially through the center. Using this technique you are able to see the lines where the canes join.
