Because Inquiring minds want to know. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140028079199&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:11 This quote from the auction....... "These beads was made in very limited quanities from old cane by the master himself(Luigi Cattelan) imported directely from Luigi's store in Murano all are in perfect condition"......And if that's not enough, where "another man's junk is another man's treasure", Luigi, while forging through old warehouses and factories on the island, has come upon many kilos of old and rare chevron cane, which he then makes into beads. Now where does this fit into the mystery? Did Luigi make these beads from scratch? Or did he make them from old cane? How many kilos of this rare cane might he have turned up? If there are many kilos of a cane can it qualify as rare? I would still like to know for the sake of my own curiosity and that of the many collectors who are told their beads are rare, just how many kilos of this cane there might have been and yet might be.
