Original Message:   An observation on contemporary "Boshan" style millefiori beads
Jamey gave a presentation at the 2004 Bead Expo noting the unusual construction of the murrine in the old Boshan beads - as if a strip of glass was rolled up, causing the tiny stripes to spiral outward from the center. The newest beads seem to be using the Venetian drawn cane method - no spiraling. Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
