Original Message: answering my own question..... 'Boshan' beads |
---|
I remembered the word Boshan, referring to these beads. BCN search does not seem to work. I did a Google search of BCN and found several posts. I understand if Frederick does not want to discuss these any more. There was a green bead very much like mine on a collector's strand. This bead was not pointed out as 'new', so I still have hope mine might be the older type of Boshan trailed millefiori. My beads have well centered distinct starbursts and two color trailings that seem 'confident'. The perforations are clean with no sign of release residue. The condition is 'like new', however.... New old stock? or just new? All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
