Description: Gorgeous rich dark blood red, a greasy opaque in large 5 gram hanks that measure 10" long with six strands when laid flat. These beads are 1.5 mm diameter (14/0) but they stack 30 beads per inch (16/0). This is a great color for Native American bead work. I bought out the remaining stock and once I sell this I won't ever be able to get it again because it is no longer made. It was hand crafted by glassblowers in Murano, Italy in the 1800's up to 1940. I have over 300 listings (and more in stock) of antique and vintage seed beads from Murano, Italy, the Czech Republic, and France. Most are Italian, handmade and over 100 years old. I've been working with tiny antique seed beads as a beaded purse restorationist for over 30 years. If you want more depth, definition and rarity in your bead work, they tiny beads are wonderful. They are great for Native American beadwork, beaded flowers on wire, restoring vintage or antique clothing or reproductions, and for creating legacy jewelry and other pieces with finishes, colors and sizes no longer made!
