12mm Round (10) - Light Blue w. Rolled Crumb - Vintage Glass Lampwork Beads

These are a Japanese style crumb bead.  Because they are handmade, each bead will be ever so slightly different, which adds to their appeal!

Underneath is a solid opaque glass, with a patterned coating over the top.  A bit of a talking point when you wear jewellery using these. 

The speckling is a very old technique, using the lampworking method, and made by rolling the formed bead in glass 'crumb' (leftovers from previous projects eg very small shards and tiny pieces) and then rolling again to make the crumb adhere to the bead, and smooth it out.
