Antique Matched Venetian Glass Millefiori Trade Beads - Rita Okrent Collection (AT1294)

RARE FIND: only one in our inventory

A complete, long strand of antique handcrafted Venetian beads. These short tubes have a yellow base with maroon, blue and black designs.

Provenance: Sourced by Rita in the 1980's.

Why we love these beads:
Multilayered beads with black core and colorful edges at top and bottom (holes). 
So much to work with - very flexible size and shape.

Details: 71 beads total on strand. Beads measure between 12.5-14mm diameter, with most in the 12-13mm range.  Bead length is between 9.5-12mm.

Very good condition with some pockmarks but very limited chipping (one bead).
