Original Message: Confetti, not sommerso - paperweights & marbles? |
---|
The Chinese beads used on baby carriers in Southeast Asia were crumb beads, with the colored glass fragments applied to the surface? Like those pictured in Ornament, cited in this pic in a former post: http://beadcollector.net/cgi-bin/anyboard.cgi?fvp=/openforum/&cmd=iYz&aK=94824&iZz=94824&gV=0&kQz=&aO=1&iWz=0 Whereas your nifty gift bead seems more related to paperweight and marbles manufacture. And I likely have the glass-making terms confused. "Cased confetti" seems to be a thing for marble collectors. All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
