The problem with appreciating these incredible tiny masterpieces is that most people have never seen them in person. Pictures cannot do them justice. I once saw a 30" necklace of nothing but high grade tiny Kiffa beads worn by a visitor from Japan, when I asked about them she informed me that she knew nothing about them and they had been a gift from a friend from Switzerland. The beads were of such tight designs and so small that it became one of my personal pursuits to duplicate the strand. If time permits I will put together a photo series of the the tiny beads in my collection (shown is an old photo of a tiny Kiffa imitating a Morfia bead)
