Hello all! As always I have been surfing the web in the quest for bead knowledge.

I came across this seller and it got me wondering what the differences are between Indian furnace wound glass beads and old 'peking glass' beads? I have attached a link to a seller and a particular bead I would be interested in any opinions on.

If this bead is indeed 'peking glass,' what would be some of the distinguishing differences between Indian made furnace wound glass and these old peking glass beads. Are they both made using just a nearly identical technique or ??

Any thoughts appreciated! -W
