Description

  • Set of 3 collectible Antique Venetian Trade Beads with entire multi-color canes applied to the core lengthwise, rather than the usual thin can slices (aka murrine
  • First image shows the chevron cane ends visible at the end of the beads
  • The other images show the outside of the beads form various views
  • I'm not sure why this would be done, surely many more beads could have been made if they canes were sliced into murrine. 
  • Only on set exactly like this altho I have another set of 2 (JSD--249) and a similar one with green stripes (JSD-274)
  • From the collection of Joyce Diamanti, bead researcher, writer, and educator.
