2mm Pale blue opaque 2-cut tubes bugles antique Murano glass beads vintage Italian 9/0

10 gram package. Approximately 2 mm each. These lovely little treasures have a satiny quality that's difficult to photograph, but that's sure to delight.

In the early 20th century, these rare beads were painstakingly hand manufactured by master craftsmen in the fabled Societa Veneziana Conterie glass factories of Murano, Italy. The slight irregularities in size and shape are an expected and natural result of the production process, which is a lost art.

Nothing shown in the photos other than the beads is included in your purchase.
