I have heard of some Russian research on the subject, but information is hard to find. I have seen examples of mosaic glass beads that are similar to more "western" beads, yet with slight differences in color and style. A couple of examples below, 10 beads about 9 to 11 mm in diameter: All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
